"Cast your burden on the LORD, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved."
Everyday we always aim for the best in the life and aspirations we have going and yet we fail. We look back and reminisce on the mistake of our past and continues beating ourselves for slight errors we made that has made us fixed in the situation we are today.
Is this fair? Must we live with this attitude of regret to be able to get a better life ahead? Why do we have to keep hurting our hearts? Why do we have to keep hitting on ourselves to make a point? Is your past actually supposed to correct the mistake of the future?
I have a good friend who told me that yesterday is history, Tomorrow is mystery but today is a gift and that is why it is called the present. If you believe this saying and then you will know that your mystery has nothing to do with your history, all you have to do is to open your present and enjoy the benefit of it in full.
When the Lord make a day available for you, remember that many really did not make it and that he has allowed you the grace that you do not deserve if he is to check how worthy you are but because of his love and the availability of his grace, he has allowed us all the opportunity to know and experience more of him and yet we refuse to appraise what we have and thank him for it, rather we beat ourselves about a history that meant no good for us and forgot that even in those days past he also like today allowed you life that you do not deserve.
Why do we allow the foolishness that is of this earth overshadow the wisdom that the Lord has made available for us. Let your past be your past, if you are to seek anything from it, let it be something that uplift the spirit and gives glory to your father in heaven and anything that brings you to the past that does not do these is of the devil and we all know that the devil has come to steal, to kill and destroy. He has no good intention, no matter how he presents his plans, they always leads to destruction.
If you have been able to understand the love that God has for you and willing to walk in his ways, you must first cast the old cloak. You must let go the old wine skin, cause the new wine the Lord is bout to pour will not be able to stay in the old wins skin. Please throw away all past mentality the world has injected into you and allow the Lord to lead all the way through.
So once more, cast your burden upon the Lord and let him carry that heavy burden of shame, pains, frustrations, confusion, sorrow, lack and so on. He is all out for you and if you know your place a s a royal priesthood, then you will know that the Lord is out for greater and greater plans for your own good.
Finally i must remember you that God has opened his heart of love towards you and all you can do in response is to open yours and allow the powerful love of God to take charge, in quietness and supplications towards the Lord God, allow his perfect love flood into you and thus will come the Holy spirit to burn away the unneeded amenities that you have brought from your old life and so will it continues until it is no more.
May the goodness of the Lord never depart from you, all the days of your life in Jesus name... Amen
