Don’t Get Stuck in a Moment

Author Joyce Meyer From Living Beyond Your Feelings 7 years ago 7761

Your future has no room for your past, and I encourage you not to get stuck in a moment or a time frame in your life that is over. Millions of people miss today because either they refuse to let go of the past or they worry about the future. The things that happened to me or to millions of others in life are unfortunate to say the least. Such abuses are painful and they do affect us, but we can recover. God is a Re-deemer and a Restorer. He promises to restore our souls, and He will—if we invite Him in and cooperate with His healing process in our lives.

The Lord is my Shepherd [to feed, guide, and shield me], I shall not lack. He makes me lie down in [fresh, tender] green pastures; He leads me beside the still and restful waters.


He refreshes and restores my life (my self); He leads me in the paths of righteousness [uprightness and right standing with Him—not for my earning it, but] for His name's sake.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                (Psalm 23:1-3)

When this Psalm says that He makes us lie down and leads us beside still and restful waters, it reminds me of our coming to the place where we finally stop running from the past and simply make a decision to face it and receive healing. We spend time with God in His Word and presence, learning that He has offered us a new life, one that is filled with wholeness for our spirits, minds, wills, and emotions. When the soul is healthy and restored, it brings physical health to us too.

Many sicknesses and diseases today are the result of internal stress. No matter how many doctors we see or how much medicine we take, we may be only dealing with symptoms rather than getting to the root of the problem.
