Your faith will guide you right back to where you need to be.



Your faith will guide you right back to where you need to be. We get so lost from time to time. It's hard not to in this world. Things happen that we never could have predicted and we get hurt in ways that rock us to our foundations. It's hard not to look up to the sky and yell, "What the actual fu*k is going on?! Why me?!" Trust me I feel like I've been there more times than I would like to admit.⁠

But always come back. Come back to who you really are. Come back to your heart. Come back to this moment. Never forget that you've been able to get through the worst of the worst every single time. I know that doesn't feel like much when you are struggling right now, but it really does count for something.⁠

Everything is changing. It's always changing. When you're really in the thick of it, remember...it's on it's way out. When you are feeling wonderful and really in flow, remember that things are always subject to change. That's how we grow. And as the old phrase goes...no mud, no lotus.⁠

But here's what I always go to no matter how things seem to get. "Love or fear? Will I move forward with love or choose fear?"⁠

Think about what would happen if you stopped before every important choice and gave yourself a second to consider the two paths in front of you. Think about the decisions in the past that could have used a moment of reflection before making the choices that you did. ⁠

How much would life change? I would say pretty significantly. Would this practice be easy? No. Would it be very very very worth it? Absolutely. ⁠

So step into this and ask yourself the most important question of all..."What will it be today? Love? Or fear?"
