Just A Thought: Your Past Don't Matter!!!!

I’m very opinionated (as some of you may know) and I like finding out other people’s opinions on everything. So I was talking to a friend of mine about life in general, specifically about the progression of people in this life; the Past, The Present & The Future. Well, to wrap things up, this is what we ‘kind of’ agreed on (after a long discussion of course..hahah you know what I mean).

THE PRESENT This is where you are at the time NOW and there is nothing you can do to change The Present, but you can walk through it by keeping a positive attitude. If you did not prepare it and mould it while it was still the future, it is too late so you might as well enjoy it. The bottom line is, don't fight whatever is happening in The Present, you will be frustrated; it is just a moment and it will soon be the Past........................................................................................................ THE PAST

Heheheh, this one right here is challenging (nyana). But it is what it is, the Past, you can't change it as well, so why even consider it. Easier said than done hey, but it is possible. You can refuse to allow you past into your Present and your Future. Know this: as long as you still cry over your past, still in there wounded by it, it has dominion over you and it has defeated you and that is NOT good for you. So how can you shake off your past? Hmmmm, let’s see:................. 1. Give your life to Jesus. Let Him be the Lord of your life. (2 Cor 5:17.)Hahah, If He is your Master, you are in good hands, your future is bright, very. Basically, you have NO PAST at all. 2. Lose the baggage NOT the lesson: Learn from your mistakes. Yes you messed up; yes you were wrong, yes you were stupid etc, but it is all in the past. You are NOW a better person. 3. Believe that your mistakes were not 'set backs' but 'set ups' to propel you to greater heights. Consequences of your past failures should NOT defeat your, deal with them, but never allow then to derail your life or get you down. 4. Never base your future on your past. Yeah, you can compare the two so that you can see how God has raised you up and blessed you. 5. Learn to listen to instructions, if you don't; you'll fall into destruction. Proverbs 4:20 – 22 (I did write about Role models/Mentors/"the Compass" see WE NEED GUIDANCE...)..................................................................................................................... THE FUTURE

1. If He is your Lord, you got nothing to worry about. (Psalm 23:1, Proverbs 3: 5) 2. Soak yourself in Him, in His WORD, get to know your Master and the real you. (John 15:5) 3. Be on His perfect will for your life NOT you trying to make God to be on your will for your Life. (John 10:27-28, John 15:16) 4. Know who you are, what you have. (1John 4:4, 1John 5:1-4) 5. Do the WORD! 6. Make up your mind to be knowledgeable, to be a better person, to be a star always. Get Wisdom!
