Two steps forward and one step back.

Some days that feels optimistic. In reality, it feels more like two steps back and one step forward.

In those moments, I choose to trust God is keeping me focused in the right direction, that I’m not stuck. I choose to believe God has placed me on a moving sidewalk, and he is helping me make progress even when I don’t feel as if I am.

You might feel the pull of yesterday on you today. You might not be moving forward at the pace you prefer, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t moving forward.

Look forward. Take a step. Stand firmly with God, and let him move the path beneath your feet.
