Moving Forward

I was humming an Israel Houghton song this weekend called-Moving forward. I am as authentic as it gets,so I did not borrow the song's words but the message is pretty powerful.I am sure I in a way irritated my mum humming the same song all weekend even a few seconds ago but concidering how musical my family is I do not see any one complaining.It is more like whoever has a more catchy tone wins the battle to sing out loud.

Before I totally drift away,Let me get into it.You know everytime someone says move on-it more often  times denotes a negative past experience.Well yes!sometimes but whether it is good or not bad truth is people who walk backwards always end up falling.Take for example a person who has  achieved a great deal of success proffessionally and wants to move on to a new job.As poistive as that may be,It will only get you to the door but if you can not prove yourself then thats when the title -'a has  been sounds really hurtful'.My dad once said the most profound statement ever.He said faith looks ahead and fear looks around what a contrast.You see if you never let go of the past,you relive it in the present and never really be in the moment.I am not saying live like there is no tommorrrow!No!simply live in the moment that is where the gurantee lies.

If God really wanted you to live on yesterday,he would have probably left you there but the beauty of it all lies in the potential of a new day so when you are down and you think you are out.Take a listen to  Moving forward it is not only motivational it is deeply spiritual.I have a habit of defending my statement so let me live my  post short and sweet.My opinion quiet frankly is the past is good because it gives you a stepping stone and a thermometer to gauge your growth.I have had it being said that a people without a history are.........(my mind has just given up on me).Moving on,learn what you have to from the past and live it there.It is hard to do that for people who have been through traumatic experiences but the only way to be free and not a prisoner of your past is to Let go and Israel sums it up in his song by saying God makes all things new.
