Looking Back
Hebrews 10:39
But we are not of them who draw back to perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.


Dr. Donne says that Lot's wife looked back and God never gave her leave to look forward again. God hath set our eyes in our foreheads to look forward, not backward; not to be proud of that which we have done, but diligent in that which we are to do.

(E. P. Thwing.)
