I live in the past. It binds me, put chains on me, and enslaves me sometimes. I let my own thoughts become full-out battles every day.
God has challenged me to stop this negative behavior. A few weeks ago a meditation guy came to one of my classes. I immediately dismissed him because I am not one to sit and be still, but he said something that I have not been able to shake. He told us simply that what has happened is done. We can’t change it. No matter how much energy and time we put into, we cannot change it.
I have the present. I have right now. I am going to have to actively start recognizing the moments that God is giving me right now.
Jeremiah 29:11 For 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.
This gives me hope. Hope for a happier life with fewer battles in my mind. God’s got this. Just like always
