Philippians 3:13 NASB "Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead," I had to decide what to keep and what to take with me! Today's verse is about forgetting the past and reaching forward! I couldn't carry it all, so I had to make a decision as to what I was going to bring with me on the trip.  There were things I thought I needed and things I wanted, but I couldn't bring them all so I had to decided. As we face the new year, we need to decide what we will bring with us. We need not carry the baggage of our past, we need to let it go. Hopefully we've learned the lessons and can leave the guilt, pain, suffering in the past and face the new year with only the things that make us stronger. I do know one thing I always need to carry with me no matter where I go and that's God's Word - what about you?! peace, tom
