Life is about our journey but needs to be divided into 3 parts.

Past, present and future as it consists of many aspects of our lives.

The PAST, hurt and pain needs to be ACKNOWLEDGED, not held onto. Fear, anger, resentments, bitterness, unforgiveness, guilt, shame etc., cannot be carried into the present because they will cause me to be sick. In mind and heart. I need to be changed from within by a new way of thinking. Whatever I sow, so shall I reap. Anger brings more anger; love brings more love. I must choose. Am I still carrying emotional pain?

The PRESENT. I need to FORGIVE and ACCEPT my life and grow in it Learn to let go and let God be my advocate, my healer, my strength. My character and attitude needs changing as. I grow through pain and difficulties. I need to change how I think about situations and people. I need to change what I believe about people, sometimes even God and myself if it is negative in order to change my feelings, I need to change how I speak and act or re-act. I will stay in this pain until I choose to fix it. Am I ready to let go?

The FUTURE brings HEALING and I ADVANCE to a life of victory and freedom. I learn to walk and grow into Christ-like character using the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Gal.5:16-23) as my guide. Faith unshakeable, Love never quits. Patience is love on trial producing Peace. Joy pays off most when under pressure. Gentleness is strength. Goodness & Kindness are God's hands in service and to walk in Self-Control, I need obedience. With God all things are possible.

Dragging the past with you, you will never have a healthy present or future. Your mind and heart are divided, and you are not free. A man is a slave to whatever controls him. This book challenges you to work through your life and assists you with many exercises and tools to walk into every blessing and victory the Lord Jesus has purposed for you. This is your journey and it is worth it. (John 10:10.)
