The Importance of Being There
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)

Turn Your Past into Purpose
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.—Romans 8:1–2 (NIV)
Jesus gives us the power to be free of pain and burden of past mistakes. Pray for Him to help you let go of the past and stop obsessing over things you should have said or done. Ask Him to help you walk forward with purpose. Pray for the wisdom to learn from the past and look ahead with faith.
Heavenly Father, help me live one day at a time, believing in the bright future ahead.
