Lamentations 3:22-23 (NKJV) 22 Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
Yesterday is behind us. We can’t go back.
What we have already done is also behind us. We may have made some major blunders in the days behind us. Some of them may have cost us dearly. Some of them may have brought shame upon us, and maybe even upon our families.
But those things don’t have to define us.
Why? Because God’s mercies are new every morning.
Those transgressions that are behind us can be forgiven by our Father, if we just ask Him to do so. And when He forgives us, He removes them far from us.
How far? As far as the east is from the west. That’s a long way!
Psalm 103:12 (NKJV) 12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.
Once God has forgiven us, we are free to move forward. And at that point, it’s up to us to make sure we don’t make the same mistakes again and again.
Even in that, God is faithful to lead us and guide us, showing us where to place our feet with each step we take.
It’s our job to follow where He leads us.
