Fresh Start

THRIVE Day Sixty-Three

My inspiration for today's post:


Isn't that excellent news?  It doesn't matter what kind of mess we made out of yesterday... or even today.  Tomorrow brings a fresh start, a new chance to 'get things right' next time.  I'm so thankful for this news.  Some days I have such high hopes to do this or do that and sometimes I totally nail it.  Other times, my life kinda looks like this:

 
It's ok. 
 
I laugh at myself and think, "I've gotta do better next time." 
Sometimes I do better but sometimes it takes a few times to get it right.
 
And that's ok.
 
There's so much freedom in knowing that it's ok to make mistakes. 
It's alright to not have it all together.   Granted, I prefer to have things go perfectly ALL the time... but they never do. 
I'm finally learning that if you really want to plan on something,
you can plan for things to NOT go the way you think they will.
But you can ALWAYS count on this:  God doesn't make mistakes. 
He 'nails' it the first time, every time.  His ways are perfect and unchangeable. 
 
So, tomorrow, I'm going to do better.  I'm going to make better choices and manage my time better.  I'm going to prioritize things better.  I'm going to focus on the important things.
I'm going to live without regrets. 
Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life... my fresh start.
I choose to Thrive.
