✨ Habit of Hope: Be willing to step out of your comfort zone so you can grow.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

  • Choosing joy and having a positive mindset is a decision we can make.
  • Growth and transformation happen when we embrace discomfort rather than avoid it.
  • Seeking God’s guidance through prayer and trusting in His timing strengthens us.
  • Small, manageable steps build confidence and momentum toward change.
  • Trusting in God’s faithfulness allows us to persevere and find hope in difficult times.
