Good Morning Beauties!
Congratulations, you’ve made it half way through your journey already. I’m confident you’ve experienced change in at least one part of your life, if not more, over these past twenty days. How are you feeling about it?
Have you ever been half way through something and wanted to give up and turn around and go back to where you started? There have been times where I’ve done just that. It left me feeling discouraged and helpless. There have also been times where I’ve wanted to turn back around and go to where it was familiar and comfortable. I thought the challenges were too great, and I was tired from trying to overcome them on my own. Something stirred inside me, and I made the choice to keep going, to forge ahead through fear and discomfort. That “something” was the power of God working inside me. Please trust me when I say “keep going, put your trust in Him, He’s with you, and it’s worth it!”
Half way is also a great time to assess how your journey’s going. Are your expectations being met? Are you keeping the obstacles away from your progress? Are you staying motivated? Only you can answer these questions - answer them honestly. Selah.
Do you need to make adjustments? Here are a few things, as a reminder, that will help your success: spend time in prayer first, listen to the song and let the Truth wash over you, make time for your relationship with God, use your journal to keep track of the lies that have been silenced with God’s Truth, slow down and use the creative pages to quiet your mind so you can hear Him speak to your heart, and commit to coming to Him every day no matter what.
Whatever you do, love yourself for the progress you’ve made and don’t beat yourself up. Send yourself positive messages and practice self care. And know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, God loves you and is so proud of you!
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
