“...and they turned their backs and went in reverse instead of forward.”
Now that's just sad.
The voice of God will always move us forward. If we are moving backwards, we are not listening to HIS voice, but someone else's instead.
It doesn't matter today if we've been going backwards in the past, but what does matter today is that we are moving forward now!
Follow the ways Our Father in Heaven has shown us in His beautiful loving Word. Follow what GOD has put on YOUR heart. Do not compare yourself or life story to anyone else because God made you uniquely YOU and your story is not to look like anyone else's.
And get ready for an exciting, adventurous, unique, impacting life you will be leading because following Jesus is never boring! And following Jesus means always moving forward!
