You are looking at your life from the middle of the story. God isn’t. Give yourself permission to stop deciding what everything means while you’re still living through it. Some things will make much more sense from where you’re going.
what you see: wasted time
what God sees: necessary preparation
what you see: a closed door
what God sees: protection from the wrong path
a lesson you needed to learn

what you see: a mistake
what God sees: a lesson you needed to learn
what you see: falling behind
what God sees: exactly on schedule
what you see: not good enough
what God sees: still becoming
what you see: too many setbacks
what God sees: strategic positioning

what you see: starting over
what God sees: starting from experience
what you see: evidence you’re not cut out for this
what God sees: proof you’re being refined for it
