Forget running behind your back!

Phil 3:12–16

This is not to say that I have got it, but that I am striving for it, or that I can get it from Christ Jesus. Guys, I don't think I got it. I only have one thing, that is, forget what is behind me, work hard for what is in front of me, and go straight to my goal to get the reward that God called me from above in Christ Jesus. Therefore, all perfect people among us must always have such a heart; If you have a different mind about everything, God will let you see it. However, where we have arrived and what we should follow.

It is impossible to forget unless we lose our memory; Or what happened is not important to us, or it is not worth remembering. It is an attitude towards life, a wise choice, and a reward of kindness to forget behind and move forward hard!

Everyone has the habit of living in yesterday, no matter what happened yesterday. When we do well and have a smooth life, we accumulate happiness and security, pile our lives on our own abilities, efforts and experiences, and lose the direction of running. When we don't do well and lead a bad life, we accumulate injury, bitterness, anxiety and guilt, bind our lives with layers of shackles and lose the ability to run!

The current situation of people is so sad, living in the shadow of yesterday, but not knowing it, until today has become yesterday. Everyone is like a tortoise, carrying a shell called "Yesterday" and crawling slowly. There is no improvement or breakthrough in life, let alone prosperity and glory!

The first thing an awakened soul should do is to take off yesterday, step on the promise of grace, lift its legs briskly and start running! At first, I stumbled from time to time because I was not used to it. But we are surrounded by fellow travelers who support each other, and the Holy Spirit who loves us personally leads the way. We got rid of the sin of being easily entangled, followed quickly with faster and lighter steps, and went straight in the direction of Christ without distractions!

The burden on my shoulders is heavy. I need to put them down before God once a day and get rid of "yesterday". Good or bad doesn't matter! The important thing is that I will never turn today into yesterday. In every night of rest, I can take a long breath and say, "thank you, praise you!" Use it up tonight and throw it away tomorrow morning! Forget the hard work behind you! "

Tomorrow! What a beautiful word! It means yesterday is not important! God's grace is new every morning! Run!

Prayer: Dear Father! How kind of you! Give me today and let me face tomorrow with hope and joy! Thank you for your salvation, so that my yesterday no longer binds me, but left a mark of grace in my life! Amen!
