stop hating your story, REDEEM IT!

☠️ For years I’ve focused on all the things I hate about my story. My choices. How my husband and I came together. My mistakes. All of it. “I hate our story” is something I used to sob and sob over.

But then I heard this statement last year and it changed me in an instant:

📌“Stop hating your story, REDEEM IT!”

I was so focused on MYself and MY actions and MY story, that I wasn’t leaving room for GOD’S story to show.

Very self-centered and all about me, me, me.

Redemption is the whole point!

I love my story and our marriage story because it‘s all part of the journey laid out for me. 𝗡𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱, and it’s all been either God-ordained OR allowed for His purpose🖤

For years I’ve said “that sin was never part of God’s plan for me. That was my own sin-nature and God would never want me to make that choice.”

💭 But is that true? Maybe God knows I have to learn the hard way and only deep and desperate waters are when I’m finally humble enough to LISTEN and finally turn from my ways and change my mind about my choices.

Not totally sure on that, but I’ll just stick with God knows what He’s doing and by any means necessary He will do what it takes to draw me back to Him.

💭 What parts of your story do you hate? I’m guessing you know exactly what it is. Stop hating it, REDEEM IT🖤
