Your Future is Waiting

Beryl Markham could have given up her aviation dreams after crash-landing in Nova Scotia.

 

But she didn’t.

 

Instead, this determined woman became the first person to fly from England to North America. She later said that in order to move forward, we can’t stay in the past. In fact, she said, “Leave it the fastest way you can!”

 

This pioneer knew that staying stuck was not inevitable, that we must choose to keep our eyes on what it is we are yet to accomplish in life.

 

Ephesians 4:31-32 says, "Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

 

Maybe you are letting some past hurt keep you from your destiny. Don’t waste another moment! Your future is waiting on you to turn your eyes to it, and stop staring at a past failure.

 

Leave your past hurts as fast as you can!

 

Let’s pray.

 

Lord, we are grateful that you make a way for us to forge ahead and not be limited by the things of the past. Walk with us, always, Lord, and bless our efforts. Amen.
