Isaiah 43:18-19 18

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. 19 See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."


Philippians 3:13-14

"Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."


“Letting go isn’t about forgetting; it’s about learning and moving on. It’s making a choice to be strengthened by your past and not strangled by it. – Steve Maraboli


Dwelling in your past...

1. Will PARALYZE you.

2. Will ASSAULT your future.

3. Will STEAL your joy.

4. Will TRIGGER fear.

"A wise man once sat in the audience and cracked a joke. All laughed crazy. After a moment, he cracked the same joke again and a little less people laughed at this time. He cracked the same joke again and again, when there was no laughter in the crowd, he smiled and said, “When you can't laugh on the same joke again and again, then why you keep crying over the same thing over and over again... forget the past and move on."
