You can’t change some things. You can’t change some decisions that you have made in the past, just like you cannot control what has happened beyond your control. You CAN control what you do from this moment forward, you can change your attitude towards your circumstances.
When I was growing up, I made some stupid choices. I still do some stupid things – make stupid statements and really put my foot in it some times.
The thing is, we can regret the things that we have done and said, or we can learn from them. Everything about your past has created your character – the person that you are right now. You can’t change your past there’s no reason why it should dictate your future!
Our attitude is so important. What really gets you going? What are you passionate about? What are you focusing on?
Are you looking backwards? How about looking forwards to the place that you CAN get to, rather than concentrating on your mistakes, on your regrets? Nothing happens without a purpose. It makes us who we are.
Lately I’ve had to focus on the way that I react to circumstances, especially those circumstances or situations that make me feel really uncomfortable such as confrontation. Sometimes you need to know when to back off, or stand your ground.
I’ve also had to learn that sometimes its better to not get wound up about the little things, they are so minor but they play on your mind! That’s just the devil trying to steal your destiny, don’t even contemplate it for one second! Why bother getting jealous or uptight about something that isn’t significant? Just chill 🙂
Spend some time praying in tongues. In the presence of the Father there is freedom, grace, peace and liberty. Â He is the King that broke my chains, he set me free so that I can live a life of abundance. Times are getting short and to be honest, it’s driving me to be the man who God called me to be, rather than the man that the world shaped me to be. Fear has no place, shame has no place, it was all done for you on a cross over 2000 years ago so just live it out. Live the life that God has called you to live, a life without worry or fear!
