Reaching Forward

 Take a walk with me into a Bethel Sunday. It was absolutely wonderful to hear Pastor Davis preach. His main text came from Philippians 3:10-14 with the title of "Reaching Forward". I highly recommend you watch/listen to it here.  If you want what God has for you, you have to  reach for it.  Sometimes the Lord has to show us the way one step at a time. We don't know what the next step is until we take the first one. In the distance we see a wall. We don't know what we are going to do when we get tot the wall, but we keep walking one step at a time trusting God will make away. We can do this because we remember in times past when God made a way. When you get to that wall and there is no other way, God will either remove the wall  completely or he will blow a hole right through it. Either way, God will make a way. If we are not careful we can take on an attitude of retreat. It's so important that we not do that. We must continue to move forward. We all have a purpose in our life. Keep walking towards it one step at a time. The same God who healed the sick, raised the dead and healed the lame, is the same God that is walking with you. You can not grasp the future if you refuse to let go of the past. God has allowed the events of the past for a purpose and a reason. Nothing happens by surprise. Let go of the past and  MOVE FORWARD! His plan for you is still alive, don't let the dream die. Go forward. God is good.
