Ready: 

Isaiah 43:18   "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.”

Set: 

Hockey Chat:  There are some great stories of come behind games.  Times when teams were down and out but worked their way back to score goals and win.  Sometimes its after they come out of the locker room and just play like a new team.  Sometimes it’s putting aside the fact that you just lost 3 straight games in a best of seven series.  In the final playoff series of the 1942 NHL season, the Toronto Maple Leafs did just that and went on to beat the Detroit Redwings the next 4 games and hoist the Cup.

Go: 

Life Lesson:  There are plenty of down moments that we can stay in.  Part of moving past those moments is to not dwell on them but move forward from that point.  Jesus shows us how we can live without the heavy burden of the troubled moments past and enjoy the life now and the future promised.  We have a new life in Christ.
