Don't Look Back!

I love the scripture story of Lot leaving his home town.  Lot was living in the city of Sodom and Gomorrah which to say the least was a pretty dumpy dirty place.  The Lord was going to destroy it because of the wickedness of the people so he warned Lot and his family and told them to hightail it out of the city.  The Lord told him that when they left, they shouldn't look back.  A they were walking away from the city, the wife of Lot disobeyed a commandment of the Lord and looked back and was turn into a pillar of salt.  When we look back on a life of sin, maybe still longing to be there, or when we dwell in the past, we lack faith and trust that what the Lord has in store is better than what we are leaving.  So I realize that this video is a little dated, like 10 months late, or just 2 months early, but its still a really good video and you don't have to wait for the new year to change. Enjoy!
