Dina Deleasa Instagram – When you are going through a difficult time in your life it is possible that your recall becomes cloudy. When it is one rainy day after another, you start forgetting what the sunshine is like. One grief filled day rolls into the next. One stressful situation piles on top of another. We can start to get lost wading in the murky waters. Soon we start forgetting about the good parts. The sunny days, the goals met, the successes or deliverance we have experienced in the past. Maybe not even wanting to recognize any of the goodness that surrounds us.
May I suggest in those moments you consider making your own highlight reel? But not on your own. Ask for him to reveal to you the highlights. Not just looking for the standard marks of “success.”As I started looking through photos and videos I started to remember. Where I was at certain points and where he had brought me too. I also realized I was piecing together more family moments than career based ones.
I would really like to give up the war between what everyone else says is “right” and what I actually know to be true in my heart. I would really like to move forward but give up the pace at which I think it would be done. I would love to declare, “I am back!” but without the same hustle culture mistakes I made before. Yes, I am grieving what I perceived to have “lost.” But then leaning more into the chance to truly build back in a sustainable way. And that way needs to be fully surrendered. Because I know now more than ever his plan is truly greater. Why spend the energy stifling it? I can work in partnership with him, I do not have to carry the whole load. I get to have a new chapter, and I can’t wait to see what he writes. I hope you are still here for it when it unfolds. I have a feeling it is going to be delicious!
I challenge you to make #yourhighlightreel
