Matthew 22:34-40
Remember the wonders he has done,
    his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,
you his servants, the descendants of Abraham,
    his chosen ones, the children of Jacob.
He is the Lord our God;
    his judgments are in all the earth.
He remembers his covenant forever,
    the promise he made, for a thousand
   generations,
the covenant he made with Abraham,
    the oath he swore to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
11 “To you I will give the land of Canaan
    as the portion you will inherit.”



Reflection
The last step is to look back. We need to look back at where we have come from, in order to remember and reflect on what God has done. Looking back brings encouragement to our hearts and ignites courage for the future. What things has God done in your life? Make a list and keep it somewhere to help you reflect on what God can do. Use this list to give yourself courage to continue to take risks in your life.
