The past is the past

Philippians 4:8
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Where we focus is where we will remain. If we focus on our old selves, we will be stuck in the old ways. We need to focus on where God wants us to be. The lovely things, the admirable things is where God wants us to focus on. 

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

It is time to let the old go. The past is the past, what we are is New in Christ Jesus. Are you holding onto anything old? I sure was, but in freedom I seek the new, Gods way, not mine. He is the only way, the only truth and the only life. 

It is not about judging others, but loving them right where they are at. We look at the outward appearance, we base our thoughts on that, but God looks at the heart.

The devil will remind you of the past, but God will remind you of the beautiful creation you are, He will love you for the person you are becoming. You are a new creation, the old is gone. It is time that we focus on the real us, the new us and let the past go.
