The open door is never behind you; the open door is always before you. Quit looking at your past life and mistakes. Look unto Jesus who is the Author and Perfector of our faith. Your open door is not in the opportunity you missed ten years ago, it is not in some stuffs behind you that you can't get back. You can't gain your access by giving attention to your past life. Your past days are behind you and what God has for you is in front of you. Just pay attention. . Patience Johnson
About This Quote

When we look back at our past, we can be scared of what we have done and so we think that we cannot do it again. We can't get into that situation again, because we know that it has gone too far and that we will not be able to fix it. However, no matter what you have done in the past, God is always there for you. He is the author and perfector of our faith and he can help you rise above your mistakes. He has a better plan and a better way for you to move forward and for you to do what he wants you to do.
