Lately, I have been trying to live by these words. I have always struggled with trusting myself and second guessing, and it has become increasingly worse in the past year. I am always terrified the next move I make will be the wrong one and that I am not taking the right steps in the right directions. My husband has consistently been telling me to trust myself and to pray every day for guidance. I have began to do this and have seen such an improvement in my attitude and self-esteem.
I am sure many others have these feelings in their own lives. Doubt seems to surface every time we find ourselves in a sticky situation. When I have these feelings of doubt, I pray and ask for guidance and awareness. I pray that I will have confidence in myself and take peace in knowing God is leading me in the right direction. I realize stressing doesn’t get me anywhere and certainly doesn’t fix life’s headaches. Plus, it will give me gray hair and wrinkles!
Thanks to the unwavering support of my wonderful Parker, my amazing family and God’s guidance, I have really become a person I feel I can be proud of. My creativity is more prevalent and I accomplish so much more than I ever have. I feel better mentally and physically because I am not constantly stressing over things I can’t control. I trust myself and I trust the decisions I make.
I have come a long way and I have a long way to go. I still get down on myself (don’t we all?), but overall I know that no matter what happens, I am on the right path for me.
Have a good week and don’t forget to trust in yourself!
All Things Good
