If you are overcome with cares, and if you feel incapable of coping with life, perhaps it is because you are still trying to carry the past. Learn to live one day at a time! The past can’t be changed, only forgiven. If you’ve never asked God’s forgiveness for your past, do so right now. If you have asked, then accept it. By an act of your will stop living in the past, stop punishing yourself. If God has forgiven you how dare you not forgive yourself.
“For I will forgive their wickedness
— Jeremiah 31:34 (NIV)
and will remember their sins no more.”
Lord Jesus, deliver us from our unhealthy preoccupation with the past. Enable us to embrace today with faith and to face the future without fear. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
