Learn from past mistakes and put them behind

Finally, be strengthened by the Lord and by his vast strength. (Ephesians 6:10 CSB)

 Much of life is all about the little decisions you make every day. Decisions of the past have had their effect, but every new day can be a new start. No matter what has happened up till now, you have a chance to make the right decisions today.
 Don’t waste time reliving the pain of past mistakes and wrong decisions. That only saps your power to do what you can do today. You can’t change the past, but you can make decisions that will build the future, starting right now, so take full advantage of the present.
 Learn from past mistakes and put them behind you today. Forgive those who have wronged you and ask forgiveness from those you have wronged. That probably won’t be easy, but don’t put it off; do it today. Look to Me and My Word for fresh courage and hope, starting today. Dream new dreams today. Set new goals today. Spend your time on things that truly count today. Love your family today. Be a friend today. Do things better, starting today.
 With My help, your future can be one of newness of life and a closer walk with Me—and it all starts today. —Jesus [1]

 If we find ourselves constantly preoccupied with thoughts of the future, it’s helpful to gently remind ourselves: What happens tomorrow, next year, or in the distant future is beyond my control. Therefore, it’s not worth dwelling on. I choose to live in the present and embrace the moment. —Anselm Grün
