Faith-Lift Friday: Having Faith in Freedom from your Past

For my Faith-lift today, I have to share my devotional for today 8/10/07 from the In Touch magazine... it just fits my day so well.

Thank You Father, for reminding me to accept your forgiveness. I will praise You in the hard times, and lift myself up to you, asking for Your forgiveness, strength, and guidance. I know and have faith that You will see me through. Thank You so, for seeing me through, walking by my side, holding my hand, and guiding me through every moment of happiness, joy, sadness, you name it - You were there; thank You! In Jesus' name, amen.

Freedom From the Past

Read: Matthew 11:28-30 (New American Standard Bible)
28"(A)Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
29"Take My yoke upon you and (B)learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and (C)YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.
30"For (D)My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

"Are you haunted by your past? Lay down the chains of regret, and experience the freedom of complete forgiveness."
