I’ve come to see how much gains in life come through a process. It is here a little, there a little. There isn’t a solid arrival ever, but instead a path of stepping stones. This approach gives me hope that, even though I experience my set backs, as long as I continue working and moving forward, there are small gains in all of those set backs.
I am not the person I want to be yet. I want to be humble, always. I want to be gentle, always. I want to be merciful, always. I want to be kind, always. I want eternal perspective to be my perspective, always.
I don’t know if wanting these things is selfish of me; I see a lot of ‘I want’ up there. Even though those are the things I want for myself, I will be whatever the Lord needs me to be.
Forever grateful.
