So, let’s bring it back to the present. God has moved miraculously in each of our lives, too, whether we recognize His move or not. At some point in your life, God has moved heaven and earth just for you. That manna may have been food on your table literally or maybe it was more. It may have been a mortgage or rent payment. It may have been miraculous healing or the mending of your broken heart. It may be peace in the midst of turmoil. It might be out in your driveway right now. Whatever that manna is today, thank God for it! He truly provides for His people. Take a moment to appreciate what God has done and choose to accept the blessing of what is and what will be. You accomplish nothing when you long for things that God has delivered you from. Sisters, that’s simply a waste of your time, energy, and resources.
I wrote a song many years ago with this hook:
Look forward, then walk forward; you can’t reach your future living in the past.
Sisters, what have you been longing for that simply isn’t good for you? It’s time to release it. Use that same energy you spent on longing for what was and praise the Lord for what is right now!
