Transcript
Did you know the Bible says, if you want to live in peace and avoid anxiety, you have to avoid two things and you have to pursue one thing. Leave your past alone. Remember Lot's wife. God told her not to look back. She looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. When you keep dwelling on the past, you get stuck right there, hardened, unable to move forward and leave tomorrow alone. Jesus said, do not worry about tomorrow. When you live in the what ifs, you paralyze yourself with fear before anything has even happened. So what does God tell you to do? Think about what is true, what is lovely, what is good. Be present in this moment with God, not in the past, not in the future, right here. And when you do that, He promises to fill your heart and mind with a peace that does not make sense. Stay present with God, my friend, that is the secret.
