KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD AHEAD #846 / EMBRACING THE FATHERS HEART WITH DR GEORGE WATKINS

I heard Rex Humbard say this in a sermon, and it's stuck with me. "you can't drive a car with your eyes on the rearview mirror."
Think about the power of that statement concerning your journey in life and your spiritual growth. If we continue to keep our eyes on what we have done in the past, both good and evil, we will never accomplish what God has for us in the future.
The children of Israel are an example of this when they met with their first opposition. Because they still had their eyes on the pass, they wanted to go back to it. YouTube back to bondage. There is something about the past that brings a false sense of security. It must be that we are so familiar with it that we feel at home and in some way relate that to peace.
I acknowledge that the past has importance because that is the foundation that we build from. However, as a good house contractor knows, once you make a foundation, you bury it, and from it, the house's structure arises. In most cases, the foundation is never seen again. But you know it's there because the home stays secure and solid.
In Hebrews 12:2, it tells us that Jesus had his eyes on the work and power of the cross; that's the way he went through the pain and shame of it.
It's no wonder that the scripture tells us to look onto Jesus, the author, and finisher of our faith.
Keep the faith, friends.
