Focus Forward

leave the past in the past

I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead. —Philippians 3:13


Leave the past in the past. Let it go.

If you’re in a race, you would never continue to focus on the starting line. You are focused on the finish line.

So, don’t allow your past to cloud your future.

Looking back at past experiences may be helpful to give future direction, but our focus must remain forward.

Press forward because your future is far brighter than anything you’ve left behind in the past.

I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. —Philippians 3:14

Love you,
Pastor Bill
