God uses events in our lives to shape us, to teach us, to grow us and some of the key events are sparked by sin (our own or someone sinning against us), by our missteps, by our confusion. Memories of the past, therefore holding us to failures, regrets, ignorance, foolishness and sin. However, God doesn't want us bound to our past. He frees us from the guilt and shame of our former life. He gives us a fresh beginning. He frees us to receive every good thing He wants to give us.
By Adeshola Abraham
'If your past feels like a wilderness, know that God wants to make a road through it, perhaps to help you navigate the difficult years and salvage the good. If your past feels like a desert-land of death, know that God will make rivers of redemption flow as He brings beauty out of ashes '.
As we progress in this new year, may you receive the maximum capacity to embrace the fresh beginning God wants to give you in Jesus name. Amen.
Good Morning and happy Midweek.
