Old Testament Verse

Do not be discouraged, for you will not suffer disgrace.
Isaiah 54:4

New Testament Verse

I do not consider that I have made it my own; but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead.
Philippians 3:13

Prayer

Sometimes I can't help looking back over my shoulder. I see the mistakes I've made and the hurts I've endured. Turn my face to you, O Lord. Keep me focused on each footstep, alert to your presence with me now. Encourage me with the promise of glory. Let me be a blessing to those I meet on my path. Amen.
