The thief comes only to steal, to kill, and to destroy... |John 10:10|
Fight.
Because if you don’t fight for what you want you won’t get it. You’ll spend years wondering why, when, at the edge of breaking through, it all shatters to pieces. Fight for what is yours.
Be bold. Be desperate.
Fight for yourself. It may mean less sleep. Longer hours. Stirring up confidence you don’t feel. Letting go of unfruitful relationships. Creating effective boundaries. Saving your money. Investing in it differently. How you do it may require something you have never said or done before. You may have to sacrifice things that others will never have to. You may have to be uncomfortable for longer than you anticipated. You may have to work twice as hard. So fight harder. Not for her. Not for him. Not for them. For you.
You think there are more obstacles in your way than someone else? So what? Your excuses and your reasons will have you going in circles. Your past will forever be a crutch if you don’t move it out of the way.
If you want this to be different, fight for yourself. And fight hard.
For you have girded me with strength for battle; You have subdued under me those who rose up against me. |Psalm 18:39|
