Happy New Year
Hello January 1!
Do I look forward? Do I look back? Phillipians 3:13 says forget what was behind and press on to what lies ahead. Is that the answer? Simply forget? Forget what you may ask yourself.
Our lives look so much different at so many times. For some 2012 and every year that you can remember has been one blessing after another. For others 2012 may have been the worst year and the years before that were no different. So once again we have the question of, "What or why should I forget?"
My Bible cheater notes at the bottom of my study Bible say that Paul is reminding us we are still involved in the struggles of life in a fallen world and thus we still sin. The full glory of the ressurection remains in the future!! Does that help the pain of 2012 via divorce, cancer, seperation, depression of? Does that help the success of 2013 via health, new life, successful business year?
Whether 2012 was amazing or hard to handle one thing remains the same as we live each beautiful day. The day will come when we shall all see Jesus face to face and there is a heaven and hell and the goal of this life is to run towards...
Jesus Christ crucified, resurrected and ascendeth and SITTING at the right hand of God interceding for His children! We get to live this life to the fullest because of Jesus!
We get to live this life as forgiven people because of Jesus! What has to change for you to live pressing on to what lies ahead?
Happy NEW Year!!
P.S. Our pastor asked us to read Phillipians 3 on Sunday and tomorrow I would like to share what things were special to me, maybe you would like to read it too! I would love to see what things you discover?
