Letting go of the past

Letting go of good memories is hard, but holding onto things of the past is not good either.

When you become a Christian, we should be putting off the old things and surrendering our full life to God.  Unless we fully surrender our entire life, we won’t get anywhere.  Unless we’re committed to God, He can’t fully give us the desires of our heart.

Just as any parent or caregiver wants what's best for their kids, God wants the best for His children. 

In order to grow as a Christian, we must allow God to envelope us with wisdom and knowledge.  We must be willing to allow God's grace and power to cover us.

In order to have a prosperous and fruitful life, Christians must surrender their whole life to God, not just the parts they don't want to control. 

Evil abounds in this world we live in, so as Christians we must be ready for battle, daily.  We must put on the whole armor of God and fight the battles ahead.

In order to move forward with God, we must let go of the past forever.  God requires this of us, if we are to be His soldiers in His army of life.

Isaiah 43:18 - “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old.”
