Do not remember the past events;
pay no attention to things of old.
Look, I am about to do something new;
even now it is coming. Do you not see it?
Indeed, I will make a way in the
wilderness, rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18-19 CSB
We are a week into a brand new year. And friend, God is doing a new thing. A good thing. Whatever happened in the past, we can let go of. The brokenness. The shame. The guilt. The hurt. The anger. The bitterness. God is a God of second chances (and third, and fourth, and more!) God is a God of new life. Whatever desert we faced in 2023, or prior, we can let go and look ahead to the new God has on the horizon.
When we take our eyes off the past or the brokenness, and place our eyes on all the good God has done -and there is plenty- we expand our faith and our joy. So let's do that today. Let's give thanks to God for all He has done. Let's praise His name.
What is something you are thanking God for today?
Continuing to count God's sweet blessings...
