As we begin to look forward to another year that the Lord has given us, we sometimes tend to look back in regret or remorse at the things we did not get accomplished for the Lord in the past year. We must not allow the failures of the past to cloud our vision of the future. We can never change the past. But by the grace of God, we can make the most of the future. The apostle Paul wrote to believers in Philippi to remember that our citizenship is in heaven. We are called to be faithful to our work for the Kingdom and God's calling on our lives. Our perspective and keeping an eternal mindset can make all the difference.
