Quite often, when you are in the midst of big changes, people may try to dig up your past.
The purpose is unclear whether it’s them thinking they’re funny, or truly trying to distract you from the good things going forward. Whatever the case; it doesn’t distract God from the workmanship He is revealing in your testimony of growing faith.
New Creation: putting the past behind you and moving forward with courage and strength that can only come from God.
God does not hold your past against you. He cares for you and encourages you to repent. And with repentance, your slate is wiped clean! Open yourself up to what He has in store for you!
So many of us do not have a pretty path. Everyone of us has things we’ve done that we never should have. Confess them and move forward knowing you are forgiven. No matter what others think or say about you, it’s all relative. What goes on in your heart is between you and God. Don’t get distracted from the delight our good Lord takes in you! ❤️
2 Corinthians 1:3-7
Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you also share in our comfort.
