When I Look Back I Look Forward

It does not take much to rehearse all the pain and injustice we have suffered in our lives. Really it comes quite easily and often we are comforted by our story.

 It becomes very familiar. Our mistakes fall before us rolling off the lips of others as though we needed reminded of our faults.

So often we give in to the side of ourselves that is vulnerable and weak and we become sensitive to the opinions of others.

As believers in Christ we put on our new identity and learn to stand in the face of adversity.

 We tell a new story, one that says I am a new creature in Christ, I have come a long way on this journey, and I am proud of the choice I have made to serve the Lord. Daily renewing your mind , and refusing to give in to the lies, that hold us back from achieving our destiny.You are valued and loved by the Lord and his plan is to take every part of your life's story and give you an ending that surpasses anything you or others could imagine.Look in the mirror today, look into the eyes of Jesus looking back at you and be thankful that you were chosen by God. If God is for you then who can be against you?
