Forgetting What Lies Behind, a Poem
Sometimes I think of years gone by, forgetting your word oh God, to let them lie.
The Lord knows our minds can be weak; thinking of good times is what we should seek.
Anything uplifting and true, this is His will for you.
Above in the blue sky, the stately Eagles do fly, without effort they do soar.
For you believer, God has much more.
Don’t fret over the bad things that had come your way, they are now behind.
He has forgotten them, they never enter His mind!
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things (Philippians 4:8).
