You know i just started reading a book by Max Lucado: Everyday Deserves A Chance.
He is a great Author he can take any situation and turn it into a life lesson. I woke up this morning intending to do my lesson today on Pslam 84:1-2 but you know God had another plan instead i ended up in Lamentations 3:22-23 Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassion never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
But you know looking at both scriptures (i will let you look up the other one) they really go hand in hand. I can let evryday be sabatoged by yesterday, how many of us do that, live in the past and not for the day. How can we keep our thoughts focused on Heaven when we can't move past something we did or something someone did to us.
God's grace is new every morning when we ask and recieve it, it's the very reason Christ died on the cross, so we would not be condemned for what we did yesterday. By His blood we are saved.
It's like forgiveness, forgive and then forget. That's hard to do we say "I forgive you, but sometimes we still hold on to the anger or hurt, infact we have not forgiven them at all, and then Jesus came along he was crucified nailed to a cross sent to hell and then risen from the pit's of death so that we could be forgiven, when God say's i forgive you he does just that, don't we owe friends and family the same forgiveness God gives us. I am focused on that very kind of forgiveness, that's what seeking the heart of Christ is really all about, we won't measure up not in this world, it will come to us in the very place we can barely wrap our brains around "Heaven"
Have a Blessed Day!
Live, Love and focus on today because tomorrow has already passed.
