    It’s really beautiful that at the forefront of each of Paul’s letters He includes a Thanksgiving and Prayer section, and I think it’s really reflective of how we are called to live daily, first thanking God for all he has done. Much of what Paul is praying for I pray too for myself, that ‘my heart might be enlightened in order [to] know the hope to which he has called [me]’ (1:18) I can’t image how different my life would look if I looked forward at God’s redemptive plans not as a hopeful wish but a confident expectation of what is to come. If I truly believed what I say, that ‘my hope comes from Him’ (Psalm 62:5), isn’t Jesus’s return one of the only things I can confidently cling to in this world?…

    Another saying you may have heard is “losing with grace.” A person who loses with grace approaches their opponent after a game and shakes their hand. Failing with grace is important because just as someone who loses with grace shows their opponent the respect they deserve, someone who fails with grace ignores that small set back, recognizes what adjustments they need to make to become excellent, and keeps going. What I mean is a person who strives for excellence but deals with an addiction may fail at some point, but they do not allow that one set back to cause them to spiral back into addiction. They realize that bad habit is a choice, not an excuse.…
