I'll lose ground.
I need to keep my eyes on the goal.
It's why Paul urged me to forget what
Lies behind as I press on toward
Home. *
Dwelling on past failures, or even
On victories will certainly hold me
Back and get me off track.
But it's prudent to be selective in
What I choose to forget.
I must never forget God's promises.
I must never forget how He has
Provided for me and delivered me
From some really tough spots.
Looking back at God's faithfulness
Through the convoluted course of my
Life gives me the confidence I need to
Move forward.
*Philippians 3:13.14
