Make Your Dreams Bigger Than Your Memories: Don’t Let Your Past Keep You From Your Future by Terri Savelle Foy

We all have a history, and it is inevitable that we have committed errors and made decisions that we regret. It's common to wish we could erase certain experiences and choices that we have faced in the past. Our past shapes who we are today, and even a single event of rejection in our childhood or a bad decision in college can haunt us for years to come, altering our self-perception and shattering our aspirations.

The author, who grew up in a church, acknowledges that the hurts of the past, whether caused by others or our own wrongdoing, can weaken us. However, she believes that we can overcome our past by understanding who we are in Christ and applying it to our lives, which will allow us to let go of the past, change our self-image, and move forward with hope.
