Deal with the discomfort of feeling “not enough” or “not there yet.” Don’t swallow those feelings as truth but compare them to the truth of what God says about your “not enough” or “not there yet” attitude. Something is happening in the process. https://t.co/Pazj7XBPfN
Show up, and take the focus off yourself, and just do your best to love people well and go after the things that steal your breath. Believe you’re worth going after what you want.
Maybe life isn't about avoiding the bruises, it's about collecting the scars to prove we showed up for it. We think darkness like this could only be a punishment, but maybe it's the start of building something new. I know beautiful things are born out of the dark all the time.
darling,
you are not a shelter for people’s pain, you are not a cure for people’s loneliness, you do not live to validate anyone. it is not your job to breathe life into people’s existence and decorate anyone’s comfort zone.
