A Letter to My Future Self:
12/15/2023
The grand finale of this chapter is on the horizon, but this isn’t the end, yet.
Just hold on a little while longer.
You’ve invested so much. And in loyalty, you’ve stayed committed. You kept going, even when it was hard. You looked for the good, even when it hurt. And you’re learning to give yourself grace in the process.
You can always find reasons to smile. That’s a gift. Although you’ve come so far and sacrificed so much, you’re grateful to your past self for her endurance in getting to where you are now. You owe that level of faith to your future self to get to where you’re destined to go. Your past and future self depend on the decisions you make today.
The long-awaited promise of better days ahead will come to pass. Keep moving forward with hopeful perseverance. What you’ve worked so hard for will someday soon arrive.
Be obedient in keeping your eyes fixed on what’s above. The light at the end of the tunnel has gotten much brighter this year for a reason. There’s so much more to the story than what you can see right now.
God has brought you this far, sustained you in His strength and gifted you a beautiful, purposeful and joyful hope for the future. Keep on believing that better days are ahead. You’re almost there. And you have a widespread village, both near and far, silently rooting for you.
This commitment has become such a big part of your life for a reason. There’s purpose in that.
So, stay focused, and committed.
And grateful.
Don’t lose who you’ve worked so hard to become in this process. Persevere, with resiliency and grace.
Focus on what’s promised to come and be appreciative of what’s here right now. The long-awaited dream you hope for will be greater than you can imagine, holding quadruple the blessing for your stewardship in this journey.
You’ll make it out, someday. That day just isn’t today. But rest assured, it will come.
Press on, in faith, knowing that although your journey hasn’t been what you thought it would be, and it’s hard right now, you can always rest peacefully in your Father’s arms. The promises you’re hoping for are far greater than what you could ever ask, think or imagine.
He is with you. Keep going. ♡
“And whatever you do, in word or deed,
do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
