The Past is Dead and Done

By Angela M. Thomas

There are issues from the past that we still have to contend with but God allows us to be part of the solution. Yes, God allows us to walk through many things so that we will be part of His answer.

I believe by sharing parts of my life struggles I can help someone else to find inner peace and give them hope to overcome. I have been set free and reborn again. There was confusion and chaos in my life, but now I have some much needed order in my life. The chaos in my life was actually necessary so that order could be formed. Nothing is considered completely hidden or buried until it is known. Nothing can be fixed without facing the truth of things. I am a firm believer that as long as you are living, you still have the opportunity to fix things where you once failed. Failure is simply quitting before you succeed. A loss battle doesn’t constitute failure but when you give up failure is born. Although, you may find yourself in a situation doesn’t mean that it is your destination.

I have become renewed and transformed, as I have risked looking truthfully at the situation and working through it until I embraced all of my losses and rewards.

I believe that we all have developmental stages that we go through, but there are so many levels of understanding that will enable you to grow. I had the opportunity to work on myself and revisit some of the painful and unfinished business at different developmental stages in my life to help me find complete wholeness. My life story is still in the developing stages and always a work of art in motion. I believe that we all have room for growth, regardless of our ages. As I continue to progress along life’s journey, I continue to see many blessings and miracles that open my eyes to the wonder of just who I am. Yes, I have endured and made many mistakes in my life but I have never given up on myself. We need to find healing of present or past wounds. We need to be able to bring hope to a suffering world. We need to connect with self and a larger community. Remember to continue seeking and you will find. Continue to keep knocking and it shall be opened. Continue to achieve your life dreams and you will experience success. Continue to move past all your mistakes and pain, you will find deliverance. Sometimes, we just need a little push to keep moving and get yourself going from your present situation; remember to never give up on yourself.

    Yes, Yes Yes.... Oh My God, I can still remember being lost and just blaming myself for everything. I will never return to that place again . After reading one of your novels and. Once receiving and under standing Gods plan for me. I am transitioning into a much better person with a renewed soul. You are one of Gods instruments. He could not have chosen a more positive and caring spirit to spread his word.

    I agree with Angela completely, we soemtimes allow the past to hinder our future. So many of us hold to the past only to miss what God has planned for our future. You can't grow from your mistakes until you let go of the past. No one said it was easy, it is only easy when you allow God in our lifes and be apart of the process.

    I agree Angela, I'm renewed and transformed and when I look back, it's to reflect on how thankful I am at how far I've come. As the proverb goes, it's hard to move forward when looking backwards.
