2 Doors

 

2 closed doors are before you. 

Each one leads to your future. 

The one on the right leads to a life where you continue to do all of the things that don’t serve you. A stagnant future riddled with fear, anxiety and wishes that never come true because your apprehension stops you from moving forward. 

The one on the left opens to a life where you stop living in doubt. The “what ifs” are replaced with confidence, the dread of failing is exchanged with an excitement of trying and the life that God had planned is right in front of you. 

Which door will you open? Left or Right? One opening requires faith, transformation and overwhelmingly hard work and the other doesn’t. 

The choice is yours.

Deep Breath

Today was a day where I realized that I have been holding my breath for a long time. I took a huge inhale one day and somehow I forgot to release it. I'm not sure when it happened, but I have been on pins and needles waiting for the other shoe to drop, the next bad thing to happen or the next catastrophy to come crashing down. Blame it on the stress, blame it on my anxiety, blame it on the crazy world we are loving in, but I have been "surviving" the days. Wake up, go to work, come home, sleep....repeat day after day, week after week and before you know it - a year has gone by and I am still in survival mode.

But today I exhaled. Today I decided that I want to live. Let me rephrase that...I want to start living. I want to take another deep breath, but this time I want to release the air in my lungs and feel the weight of the last few years wash off of me. The past few years that I hae been held hostage in my own body, my own mind and in my lack in faith. Letting my lack of faith in myself effect my faith in God's purpose for me.

So here we go - I'm taking a deep breath and letting go.....and letting God lead the way.
