Forgetting those things which are behind
No looking back, we can’t rewind
Time does not go backwards…
No do-overs, will change the past
Life goes on it only lasts…
As we pass on the lessons we’ve learned…
The wise will listen; and follow through
The fool continues in his folly
Wasting his time he will never find
The road he’s longing for…
They are blind, deaf, and dumb
Only humility will open the door…
With Wisdom, life can be restored.
Ask and it will be given
Seek and you will find
Knock and keep on knocking…
He, will open the door!
For the things you thought you wanted,
Are illusions, forever out of reach…
You see…
Time is invisible…
We are racing against the clock…
Over and over and over again, like waves upon the shore
They come in and they go out…
More…we cry…more…
But when you find your purpose for coming to this place
Contentment and surrender will be written on your face…
Past, no longer holds you, and future doesn’t exist…
Now is all that matters, now, is a holy kiss…
This moment lives forever in tranquil, beauty, and bliss!
Now, Faith is!

Philippians 3:12-14 King James Version (KJV) Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Hebrews 11:1-2 The Message (MSG) Faith in What We Don’t See
The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see. The act of faith is what distinguished our ancestors, set them above the crowd.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
