Do Not Thinking About The Past Or The Future.
"I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord , “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
Your mind and your thoughts could be stuck in the past, continually thinking about what has already happened. If that's the case, it's best to get over it. The past has already happened; you can't do anything to change it. Rather, "you ought to trust God that he is working out those things for ultimate good" (see Romans 8:28). On the other hand, your mind could be stuck in the future, thinking about what might happen, what you fear will happen, and things you wish wouldn't happen. However, being a person of faith requires trust, trusting God about the future. Romans 15:13 says, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him." You'll have joy and peace when you trust in God, why? Because you'll be able to rest and relax knowing that God has good plans in store for you (see Jeremiah 29:11). Don't worry about the past or the future. Instead, have faith; trust God. When you trust God to help you learn from the past and provide for your future, you're free to enjoy your life today. When life is going well, it can be easy to forget God. So, sometimes God will use painful circumstances, difficulties, trials, and troubles, to get our attention and remind us of our need for Him. In James 1:2-4, explain to us that we are instructed to rejoice in trials: Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything, that is making us more closer to God, so, when you feel the pain of life know that God is with you. Hallelujah, God bless
