#75 Focus On Behavior _ _ _ _ _ Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet, but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus (Phil. 3:13,14. NASB). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The depressed individual often ruminates over the past - past sins and past mistakes. The future looks dim. He needs to learn to forget the past, to live in the present, and look forward to the future. He must not hold grudges against himself, God, or others for any past events. He must turn all vengeance over to God, since that is God's business. He must forgive and forget, once he has dealt adequately with any past conflict.
