@miles.with.god: I look at this photo and think about how far I’ve come. ❤️ There was a time when I really struggled with how I saw my body. I’ve been through so many phases of wanting to change it, trying to love it, feeling proud of my progress and then feeling like I was right back where I started. There have been so many ups and downs along the way, and I wish I could tell the woman in this photo just how much she had ahead of her. One of the biggest things I’ve learned is that taking care of your body and being at peace with your body are two different things. I used to think I had to push harder, do more and reach the next goal before I could feel good about myself. These days, I still love challenging myself physically, but I’m not interested in punishing myself to get results. I want to be strong, healthy and capable of doing things I never imagined I could do. And I want to enjoy the body God gave me through every stage of that journey, not just when it looks a certain way. My faith has played such a big part in changing that perspective. Sometimes the best thing I can do is slow down, get outside, pray and remember that my worth was never tied to a number on a scale. That’s one reason I love the Prayer Walks in God Goes Before You. They remind me that movement can be about so much more than changing how you look. I’m grateful for every version of me that got me here. And if you’re somewhere in the middle of your own journey, I hope you give yourself a little more grace along the way. #God #quotes #hopecore #Love #selflovejourney
