March 23: Focus on what's next instead of what's wrong.

3/23/2019

It is not helpful to dwell on what's wrong. Leave in the past what's in the past. Learn from it, but keep moving forward.

Dwelling on the wrong makes us negative people and isn't really experiencing all the good things that God has prepared for us, nor is it being a good steward of our lives and gifts.

There will always be mistakes and wrongdoing, but when we see them as opportunities for learning we focus our lives on life-giving actions instead of that which drags us down and holds us back.

So, what's next, O God? Lead me on!

I'm a wife, mom, pastor, human...probably not in that order. I struggle each day to be faithful to God, to my family and to my call as a Christian and all of those previously-mentioned roles. I pray to be positive, kind and thoughtful, but tend to fall short on all counts. I am inspired by sunrises and enjoy taking pictures (mostly my kids, deer in the yard and sunrises). I waste time playing stupid computer games and wishing I'd been better at all of the aforementioned roles. ;-)
