Most beautiful

Falling in love with someone you had no intentions on falling for, is the most beautiful kind of love. No forcing chemistry, or trying to save them. Just a pure, raw connection that created on its own.

DNA

Pretty sure this is from Priscilla Shirer Bible Study book

Using your own grit and personal resolution to force changes in your behavior is not only exhausting to maintain but nearly always proves to be nothing more than a temporary fix. Inevitable relapses churn up into a never-ending cycle of disappointment, frustration, self-hatred, along with other unhealthy emotions. Lasting change - the kind that frees you to walk within rhythms of grace, fueled by the power of God - must stem from the inside, not the outside. Despite your sinful deficiencies, which each of us shares, trust yourself to His care and cooperate with Him in the ways He's instructed. The DNA is there. Trust Him to fashion your behaviors in the image of Christ.

Owning

From Brene Brown

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it.

Defines you

From Toby Mac

Let the one who created you
be the one who defines you.

Courage

Courage does not always roar, sometimes it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."

From Bible Gateway Verse of the Day
