Pressing on...

Today I'm praying that God will help me let go of the past. What painful memory is robbing you of your joy?

...forgetting what lies behind & straining fwd to what lies ahead, press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God...Phil.3

One thing I ask of the LORD,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD
and to seek Him in His temple.

For in the day of trouble
He will keep me safe in His dwelling;
He will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle
and set me high upon a rock.

Psalm 27 lists many ways we can stay focused on what lies ahead. Praying that God will help me to incorporate these into my life.
