Past Your Past

Tonight was good. I shared my testimony with an amazing group of people at our church. After I shared there was a small group meeting time to share struggles and "ups." It was incredible being in that room and hearing the things people shared. Good stuff.
On the drive home I was reminded of a very clear moment in my healing process. I was a courier and spent many hours of my day inside a car transporting stuff from point A to point B. Needless to say I listened to the radio A LOT! At that time in my life I was listening to quite a bit of Family Life Radio. There were many days that ministered to me and I felt the exact words and songs were programmed JUST FOR ME. But there was one day that sticks out crystal clear.

The song that played was Past Your Past by Kirk Talley
A couple of the lines are as follow.
You can get past your past you can walk away from painful memories. Past your past you don't have to be alone. You can stand on the Word of God your yesterdays can be gone He will see you past your past and then you can go on.

That's from memory! I just found it and it played the chorus and that is it. Click that link and go listen to it. The whole song is incredible. I remember weeping. For there were parts of my past that I need to get past. People I needed to forgive. Things I blamed. I was still wounded. And this song really ministered to me. And it showed me a way to get through.

Healing comes in many ways and God uses some incredible things to guide us, teach us, minister to us in brokenness. And on that night it was a song on the radio. And it changed my life.

Beloved God is big enough to see you through whatever it is your facing. Be it present or past. He can heal you in your innermost being. I know...I've lived it. And today I am past my past. Halleluia!
