the past

Sometimes we can relish the things of the past...
finding those places which seem lost in time.

But as we grow spiritually
it becomes necessary to leave
“past habits” breaking those chains
that held us captive.

“You were taught,
with regard to your former way of life,
to put off your old self,
which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
to be made new in the attitude of your minds;
and to put on the new self,
created to be like God
in true righteousness and holiness.”
- Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV
