Forget It!

Philippians 3:13-14

“Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended, but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

Sometimes the biggest hinderance in our pursuit of God is the stuff that's behind us-the past. Maybe you've been through some really difficult situations in your life. Circumstances that have been really painful and tough. Disappointment, rejection, failure, hurt, abuse.....and the list goes on and on.

I want to encourage you this week to grab this verse, and keep running! Nobody is perfect and nobody has it all figured out. We all have stuff we've gone through or are going through right now.

What's crucial is that we forget the stuff that is behind us and keep going!

Chin up! Great things are ahead!
