A few years ago I wrote a song called “We Will Not Forget” (go look it up--it’s on Spotify and other music streaming platforms). It was inspired during my morning quiet time reading my Bible. Basically God was telling a group of people not to forget how far they had come, because of Him.
Ever since, I have made a point to reflect on times when I personally have walked through darkness, weakness, pain and even despair. It makes me so grateful for the way human beings are designed. You and I, we have been given innate resilience. It shows in the physical and is easily observed when we grow strong on the outside. But our resilience is also very deep. It’s spiritual, mental, emotional and extremely powerful.
Today take a moment to specifically remember times when you have perhaps been at rock bottom and come back up. Maybe you were on your knees, on your face, tired, lost or even hopeless. But you made it through, stronger from the inside out. Can we just pause with gratitude and hope as we acknowledge our beautiful resilience today?
Maybe your rock bottom is now. Take heart my friend. Hold fast to the promise and evidence of resilience. It’s your design.
Xo,
