The Future Begins Today

Philippians 3:13 NKJ “…one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,”

Today is the first day of the rest of your life. And you have the opportunity to make today a special day with God. Your past does not have to dictate your future. You can begin again. With God you really can have a fresh start. God can forgive your past and help you to forgive yourself. But most importantly, God can change you. He can make you into the kind of person you know you should be (2 Corinthians 5:17). Your life can be different. But do not assume it will be different if you continue to do things exactly the same as you always have. For your life to change, you must MAKE changes. If you want real change, God’s Word is the key. You must immerse yourself in the Word. What you feed in determines the output of your life.  God’s Word will build you up (Acts 20:32). Jesus said it would make you free, if you continue in it (John 8:31-32). The Bible is God’s answer to man’s problems. It gives life and hope and instruction so we can walk in victory. Prayer is also vital. Prayer is communication with God. All relationships require communication to keep from growing cold. So, actively involve God in your life. Consult with Him on every decision (Proverbs 3:5-6). The Holy Spirit is the best helper you will ever have (John 14:16). The future can be better. The choice is yours. If you invite and involve God in your future it will be bright! I encourage you today to invite God into every area of your life and future.
