Magic on Pine Log

Magic on Pine Log:Forgetting and remembering.The word magic can have two meanings.The one I use today is "an extraordinary power or influence seemingly from a supernatural source".This is the magic I find on Pine Log.I will invoke an incredible statement made by a man to a group of people many years ago.His instruction was this, "forget those things that are behind you and reach forth to those things that are before us".The incredible thing about that statement was this.The man who made that statement had some profound things to forget.He had to forget the faces of men,women,and children as he had them hauled off too prison or worse,simply because of what they believed.That man of course was the apostle Paul.There was absolutely no way he could have done that without "an extraordinary power or influence seemingly from a supernatural source." Because of this spiritual magic or influence he didn't have to live his life in misery over his past mistakes.This is the magic I find on Pine Log.Of course it isn't in the geography of Pine Log;but rather the influence I encounter there.The things we have to put behind us may not be as traumatic as Paul's but can be just as crippling.There is absolutely no way for any of us to go back and change anything.Thanks to this wonderful "spiritual influence"we don't have to!They simply fade away and allow us to put into practice the second part of Paul's admonishment, which is, remembering to "Reach forth to those things before." This is the magic or influence I find on Pine Log.Your Pine Log can be anywhere you choose it to be.Wishing you "extraordinary power and influence from a supernatural source" from Pine Log.
