God is able to make new paths for us. When God tells us to forget the former things, that means it's possible to do so. For some, it's difficult to forget some of the things said or done to us in the past. But maybe that's the problem...we think it was done to us. I need to remember that sometimes people do things, not because of who we are, but because they're broken people. God is able to bring healing to all our lives and our hearts.
