the invincible future


Our yesterdays hold broken and irreversible things for us. It is true that we have lost opportunities that will never return, but God can transform this destructive anxiety into a constructive thoughtfulness for the future. Let the past rest, but let it rest in the sweet embrace of Christ. Leave the broken, irreversible past in His hands, and step out into the invincible future with Him.
--Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) Scottish minister and teacher, author of the widely-read devotional My Utmost for His Highest
