Are You Lying to Yourself?

When we act like everything in our life is perfect, especially to our friends, we're not just putting up a front for them. We're also telling ourselves that we're not good enough as we are.

But often, we feel we're not good enough, so we try to show a better version of ourselves. This can actually make us feel worse about ourselves.

Diversion Road

I thought I had it figured, 
I thought I've already reached my destination, 
I thought it was an answer to my question,

Walking with love, 
Thriving with hope, 
and Living with God
