Looking Back to Look Forward

I saw this post by Joshua Harris about Jason Powell’s pictures.  These are cool pictures.Past and Present

These remind me of something I read in a leadership book several years ago.  In a study mentioned in the book, it was found that those people who look back farthest into their lives, i.e. reflect on their past, see how God has worked, remember what they have learned, etc., have the longest forward vision for their lives.

What does God want us to accomplish with the lives and time He has given to us?  We should set aside some time to look back as far as we can and ponder deeply the path we have walked.  Taking this into consideration and laying it open before God, we should then ’see’ where we can be going.
