Relieved

I think spring is emerging in my life after what often seemed like an unbearable and impossible winter…

I feel joyful in situations where I was once embittered or negative.

I’ve put aside (for the most part, let’s be honest!) the burden to be perfect and have just focused on being me.

I’m not constantly overwhelmed by wanting more than what I have or for things to be different than they are, and I’m finally experiencing contentment with what’s right in front of me.

And I’ve realized that God never lets us go; we only push him away or turn our backs on him. But he never fails.
