Looking Forward to the New Year - Forgetting and Remembering for a Fresh Start


As we look forward to the New Year, there are things to forget, and things to remember.

"Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 3:13-14 KJV

There are things we can forget that can get rid of bitterness and pain. Forgiveness can clean house for a fresh start in the new year, making us ready to accomplish the things we have been wanting to do.

"And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake [through Christ] hath forgiven you." - Ephesians 4:32 KJV

What shall we remember? We remember what Jesus has done in our life – lessons we have learned, victories we have rejoiced in, healings we are so thankful for, and blessings we praise Him for.

"And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful." - Colossians 3:15 KJV176 words
