Today
I was reflecting on this flower. It’s truly an amazing flower which I am in
love with its beautiful hues of purple and white take my breath away. It has
such a sweet fragrance and every spring it encourages me.
It
reminds me of Philippians 3:13-14 which says “No dear brothers and sisters, I
have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and
looking forward to what lies ahead. I press on to reach the end of the race and
receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus is calling us.”
This
scripture really inspires me as a Christian our yesterday is the past mistakes
and the state of sin which we once were as people. It’s amazing that when one
gets born again God separates us from our past sinful state and become a new
creation. The things that we have gone through in the past are totally blotted
out and we receive a clean sheet, a new page to write a new story.
We
have to forget our past hurts and failures and move on into the present state
of Today. The state today is one being a co heir with Christ justified by the
blood of Jesus shed on the cross. (Romans 8:1-4). We walk in the new walk
strengthened by the Holy Spirit walking towards the fullness of the destiny
that Jesus Christ has for us. It is critical to work towards ones destiny and
accomplish one’s full potential.
This
represents our future as children of God. The word of God in Psalm 139 says
before I formed you in the womb I knew you. God has a destiny for each of us .
We have let go the baggage we have today and press on to the call we have which
has been authored by the Greatest Author Himself.
So
next time you see this flower think of the wonderful gift of life God has given.
us of a new start each day
