Other words after that bad shot, you simply get another ball and club if it is in the water like mine, and you just take another shot. It is a do over as if it did not even happen.

He says I am forgetting about the things of the past and I am moving forward and looking to the future. We should always be moving forward. Not backwards, or even sideways. It takes less energy to move forward and certainly less stress. Every week I would tell our Bus workers that I thank God for the week before but that is over now.

Forget those things that are behind and move into this year. You have another year to be Great, another year to accomplish something new. One of the things that I hear often while traveling to different churches is the fact of what used to be in their church. Last time I checked God is still alive and well. He is still seated in the Heavens above and our God still controls all. What used to be can be again, and what has never been can be seen by every one of his children and this world. God still wants to be the future of our lives.
