Isaiah 43:18-19
"Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.
God wants us to move forward. He wants us to lead fulfilled lives, lives with purpose. Too much time is spent dwelling on the past whether the past is filled with trauma or not. Exclamations such as "if only" and "what if" enter our minds. We need to banish them for they serve no purpose in our future. We need to accept that the past has happened but that it doesn't have to shape our future - God will do that. Hear him, listen to him, he will lead the way to The Promised Land.
