Recalling all can be a comfort. We are often taught to live in the present and never look back. The dangers of living in the past can be detrimental; pitfalls of regret, unforgiveness, and remorse deteriorate the mind and soul. Yet how sad to miss out on the full breadth of redemption. Healing can be gradual and then sudden. Like a child growing, one cannot always see the change in stature. A glimpse into the past can be rewarding and carry new revelations. We are told that time heals all wounds, but how will we know if we do not take a look back? Done correctly, glimpses can speaks of the goodness of The Lord in the land of the living.
Lately, I have been immensely grateful for all the Lord has delivered me from and all He has given me over the years. Could some reflection produce a grateful heart for you or some praise from you?
