Start Again
Bible Verse
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!”
— Isaiah 43:18–19 (NIV)
Reflection
Life has a funny way of convincing us that one wrong turn, one bad decision, or one difficult season has written the rest of our story. We quietly tell ourselves, "I had my chance." But God has never been limited by our yesterday.
The beautiful thing about grace is that it always speaks in the present tense. It reminds us that every sunrise carries fresh mercy, every prayer is a new beginning, and every step back toward God is welcomed with open arms. We don't have to erase our past before He can begin something new. We simply have to be willing to take the next step.
Milo is already walking. He isn't looking back to count his mistakes. He's looking ahead. Maybe that's the quiet invitation for us today as well. Not to pretend the past never happened—but not to let it decide what happens next.
If you've been waiting for permission to begin again, perhaps this is it. God has been making new beginnings long before we ever learned to ask for one. Take the first small step. He'll meet you there.
