A memory passes through, that's true, but a memory is just that--a memory! Some are pleasant, some are not. What do we find ourselves concentrating on? People do awful things to themselves when their lives are based on memories. They do some awful things to themselves and others based on those memories. Are you having a hard time with memories?
God says to think on these things: Things that are good, lovely, worthy of praise. It's hard to make new, good memories when you're engrossed in negatives. But if you can find one new good to focus on, it can change your life.
We can make a choice. "choose you this day who you will follow." I follow Jesus. He is so good and will give all the help you need.
It can also keep your mind young and alert to discover new things. Positive, lovely things. Don't build life on old memories. As you change your life, those old negative memories can take on a new slant and actually take on some good and bring healing. God is so good!
Is it surprising to you that God has said you are good? Whiter than snow! Holy, set apart for God's use! He has a plan! A good plan!
In His love, A work in progress.
