♥️ this! Repost from @ruthchousimons using @repostregramapp • • Anyone else remember a time —before mortgages, kids, hard seasons in marriage, before unexpected losses and life turns— when you took more risks, laughed too loud, and felt fun + brilliantly funny? 💃🏻 Ever wonder what happened to that goofy, light-hearted girl who used to say, “Yes! Sure! Why not!” when so many thoughts now seem to begin with: “The problem is...” “What if..” or “If only...” 🙋🏻♀️ 👉🏼 To all of us a bit hardened, jaded, and slow to smile, here’s what’s making a difference for me: 1. Rest —get unplugged, off social media, and be in awe of His creation instead of your own. 2. Take yourself less seriously, and take God at His Word, more seriously. 3. Don’t wish for who you were, set your face toward who you want to BECOME. 4. Name each mercy + kindness from the Lord; I dare you to not smile so big while recounting His goodness. Don’t know who this is for tonight, but #ifwewerehavingcoffee I’d tell you that I’m a work in progress in all this as I find so many reasons to be light, to be free, to be a little too loud...laughing as I go. 🙌🏼 #webecomewhatwebehold #preachingtruthtomyownheart #rejoiceandbeglad #takeheart https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz6DNltgEKp/?igshid=1gw6v9gg2jsdi
