    It is time to stop clinging to the past. But most importantly, stop clinging to the historical Christ. He has ascended, and you have ascended with Him. Therefore, embrace the living Christ! Then you will be able to embrace the future, whatever it is. Christ is big enough. He can handle it!

    IT’S A NEW YEAR—NOW WHAT? JOHN 20:17, that's what! “Don't cling to me,” Jesus said, “I haven't yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them, 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” It is time to stop clinging to the past. But ...read more
