“Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back [to the things behind] is fit for the Kingdom of God.” Amplified Bible
Jesus said in the scripture above that any of us who desire to follow Him must relinquish our past. We must let go of our so-called ‘glory days’ and look to the truly glorious days ahead which are only found in Him. Our past acts, even though to some of us hold our most wonderful moments, are nothing in comparison to what we now have in Jesus Christ.
We have now been given eternal life, prosperity, perfect health, and everything that we never had before in abundance; just by accepting The Lord as our Savior. But even knowing this, some of us continuously look back at our past as if it was something to behold. But you cannot create a more successful future if you are always spending your time looking back at where you have been.
Our new lives in Christ should now propel us forward, causing us to focus on where we are going, and what we can do now to become even better than we could ever imagine, in Him. So, let us today endeavor to look forward, seeing what lies ahead. Let us begin to look at the magnificence of our lives lived for and in Christ, and let us leave the past where it belongs, in the past! Be Blessed Today!
