Thursday, May 27, Past

While my past has a lot of good in it, there is much that I must use as lessons to apply to my life today. More discipline and more reliance on God. I can see how self centered I really was even when I was serving on boards and doing things for the church and community. I can see that God did use me for His work, but He could have used me more had I been communicating with Him on a daily basis and had a heart and mind for His work and not for my own edification. I cannot change the past, so I must leave it in God's hands to redeem and trust Him to use me (past included) for His plan for today. I don't know how you do it, Father, but thank you for redeeming the past so that I can live for you today. I am blessed.
