Defeat is NOT an Option

This is the end of 2024. Have you given up just because you may not have accomplished your goals? Defeat is not an option! Look at what you accomplished and what you did not and learn from it. Did it make you stronger? If so, then you are taking steps forward.  Perhaps your next steps are not what you originally thought. There are times in our lives when what we thought was our path forward is not the correct path.  It may be that we need healing in one or more areas of our life that can only happen by waiting on God to direct us. It may be lessons we need to learn.  There may be great progress in one or more areas of our life that need time and space.  

This is the time to reevaluate your path forward for the new year.  Look at your future and see what has changed and what you need to do to move forward in 2025. What do you need to do that is different and what steps does that require you to do?  How has your life changed?  What are perhaps new priorities for 2025? What did you learn from this year’s mistakes and progress?  How have you grown in your knowledge or wisdom? Maybe your life was filled with roadblocks or illness but you made it through, didn’t you?  The scars of that journey have made you tougher and stronger. Those roadblocks you conquered are past now. You made it through with scars and determination and now you are ready for the next step forward in your path.

This post is simply to say, that next year will be better with more progress. Know that in your heart and mind. You are moving forward, even if it is in small steps. You got up and dusted yourself off from all of those hard days. Defeat was not an option and you proved that. God is watching and knows how hard it was. God is there with you now and has been there helping you to defeat your setbacks.

Defeat is Not an option
Each step forward brings you closer to your goals.
