Philippians (4:12-14)
Some days when you wake up, you just don't feel like
fighting
any longer. You are tired of the battles, tired of the struggles,
with no
desire to keep fighting. Paul in his letter to the church at
Philipi,
gives
us some great daily advice. He says, "Forgetting what is behind,
and
straining toward what is ahead." How often are we weary and tired
because
we are still looking back? Allowing those problems and situations
to hold
us down today. Listen, what is past is past. The enemy wants to
hold you
back
by keeping you focused on the past. I am telling you today to let
it go
and
live for today. Focus on today and tomorrow, not yesterday.
So many I deal with every day are in a pit of quicksand called
yesterdays
problems. First of all, whatever those problems are, it is time to
turn
them over to God and start living for today. Most of what is going
on
isn't
going to be fixed quickly, isn't going to have an overnight answer,
and is
going to take a power much greater than yourself to fix. After all,
if
you
could fix it, you would have already. Turn it over to God. Does
that
make
it go away magically? No. But it does put it in the hands of our
Lord who
can start working it through and getting you beyond those
circumstances.
In
the meantime, you have today in front of you. Tomorrow on the
horizon.
Get out of the quicksand of yesterday, and start living for Him
today.
You
will be surprised how much quicker and easier your past problems
work out
when you are concentrating on serving the Lord today. I understand
that
there are many complicated and difficult situations many of you are
facing
today. I am not trying to minimize those in any way. I am
encouraging
you
to quit focusing so much on the problems of yesterday, and start
making
the
most of your opportunities today, looking towards the challenges of
tomorrow.
Looking back can paralyze you, looking forward can energize you.
I am praying for you. I enjoy the email I receive and the ability
by
God's
strength to sit down and personally answer you each day. It is at a
point
where I cannot physically answer over 1,500 emails a day, but trust
me, I
personally see each one, pray over each one, and dictate the answers
to my
staff by the leading of God's Holy Spirit to try and help you the
best I
can.
Be blessed this day, and take the challenge to leave the past
behind, push
forward, onto the prize!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother,
Bill Keller
