Laying it down…
I gotta stop rubber necking… always circling the same painful mountains of things I can’t undo. It’s a daily battle, even for this woman of Faith. This old way of thinking is so destructive to the getting up off your face and walking on part of life, that so many face.
In the spirit of keeping it real, I felt it important to include a note reminding me to cut myself some slack, and rest on a truth we should all adopt for a healthier self. Let go of past mistakes I can’t change… it’s an unproductive waste of time! What should be more important to me, is what I do with the time I still have left to make a difference in this world.
Note to Self #9
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3: 13, 14
The song “Lay it Down” by Tasha Layton grabbed my heart as I was writing this article. The words reminded me let go of burdens He is already carrying for me, and the sins He has already forgiven! I hope you take a moment out of your day to have a listen.

Good to hear. My biggest struggle is not understanding why things keep getting paid. I know God does hold us hostage about our sins but sometimes it feels like he does. It feels like you are in a cold dark room with no ventilation or light.

Oddly, I think I tend to hold onto my flaws more than God does
