Looking ahead

Enjoying the Sunshine of a Christian life at St Mark's

27 January 2011

Psalms 133:3 It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life for evermore

This morning the area around Linga Longa was covered in mist and the ground was wet with the heavy dew, within a few moments after sunrise and the mist was gone. Sometimes in our lives the problems that come from yesterday, just needs the sun of a new day and they disappear like the morning mist. So when we have problems that seem to drag on, we may just need to bring them out into the sun.

We also need to have things to do that we look forward to, even though we may have anxiety, or stress about other things, they all need to have their time and space. So we need to think and plan about the things we like to do or want to do, so that we build an expectation in us of what to look forward to.

So for Val and I we have been looking forward to tonight since Christmas, tonight we are going to the theatre in Johannesburg and we are going to see the River Dance. So tomorrow we will still be in Johannesburg and we will come back later.

When we understand that God always wants us to look forward to the future then we need to find the things that helps us to do so.

Be encouraged today to look forward to the good things of tomorrow.

David

Point to ponder: Stop looking back.
