Progress. Just make progress. It's okay to have setbacks and the need for do-overs. It's okay to draw a line in the sand and start over again - and again. Just make sure you're moving the line forward. Move forward. Take baby steps... Then change will come. And it will be good.

Satan wants anxiety to hinder us from becoming effective servants of Christ.
Lysa TerKeurst
Not reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.

No person, possession, profession, or position ever fills the cup of a wounded, empty heart. It's an emptiness only God can fill.
Lysa TerKeurst
Even Jesus, the Savior of the world, had to take time each day to ask for his portion.

Bad moments don't make bad mommas.

On the other end of the spectrum, we can't use this permission to sometimes say no and use it as a wand to wish away all our responsibilities. We also must remember not to use our no answers as a weapon. We can't turn into No! ninjas, karate-chopping anyone who even comes close to asking us for something.
Lysa TerKeurst
Don't let the hurt of today blind you to the hope of tomorrow. Disappointment ushers in a new appointment.
Lysa TerKeurst
So often, we want big directional signs from God. God just wants us to pay attention. But we need to leave enough space in our days to get up from our prayers and actually look for God in the moment-to-moment things that happen.

Sip the shame so you won't have to guzzle the regret.
