i think this could really apply to any circumstance that leaves us looking different.
i felt this most in falling pregnant almost 3 years ago. it wasn’t what i thought life would look like, and i’ve been refined since then - but midway through my first trimester i had this mental shift… it’s not “i’ll never be the same” — it’s “i get to be changed”. and boy have i been changed!
God does some pretty cool stuff amidst seasons you thought you couldn’t handle. so, just a reminder to look inward & shift perspectives. it’s a lot happier.
