Happy Friday, friends!
I often hear the phrase "Oh, I'm so behind on ______" followed by all kinds of negative self-talk. Sometimes this is triggered by a new season when we realize we missed opportunities, didn't follow through on good intentions or didn't "achieve" everything we wanted to during the season we're moving out of. Sometimes it's simply getting to the end of a month and wondering how the days are over, but the lists are still there - lingering and nagging at us. Then we try to revamp our motivations to "turn over a new leaf" for the next month, week, or year...
It's human nature to reevaluate and be self-critical, but it's also important to remember that we have God's grace to wash over all the shame/guilt we heap on ourselves.
Hmmm, apparently this theme was on my mind about this same time last year, so I thought I'd share a post from then to encourage you again:
