Thanks very much for this again! I seem to keep having trouble getting to find out how to add my comment but here I am now, after sharing this on Facebook. Once again I have found this (though seemingly so obvious!) so encouraging. So true that if driving up a mountain, if one keeps looking in the rear mirror, we’d be headed for disaster, as it’s just so dangerous!
Shame is a horrendous thing that hold us back from moving forward, causing us to be so stuck. I thank God for the hope in Christ that enables us to keep looking forward in order to move forward rather than allowing where I’d gone wrong to keep me stuck in the rut.
Thanks Pastor Brad!
Thank you! It’s always encouraging to me to know that podcasts and posts on the blog help someone. Keep your eyes on the road ahead!
