“Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? (Isaiah 43:18-19)
For some, summer is a time to kick back and relax and just chill. For many of us however, summer may be a time to fix things from the year behind us. Some are taking classes to improve job opportunities. Others may be trying a new exercise routine to lose those Covid pounds. Others, like my summer school students, are making up for lost time . . . missed assignments . . . poor grades . . . even a last ditch effort to move on to the next grade level.
Whatever your goals for this summer, as with the Jews here in Isaiah's writings, we cannot change the past! It is what it is. However, today we can decide to change the future!
Isaiah reminds us today that we should learn from the past for sure, but do not dwell upon it. God wants to do a new thing! Do we want that new thing . . . new job . . . new relationship . . . new G.P.A.?
Here is an opportunity to renew things. God is willing to take us through if we will commit to follow His path.
Today, we/you can decide to change the future! You ready????
