“A mistake is an event, not an identity.”
There are moments we wish we could undo.
Words spoken too quickly.
Decisions made in fear.
Silence held too long.
But growth is rarely graceful.
It is awkward.
Messy.
Human.
You are not defined by the moment you stumbled.
Definition is your awareness you gain through it.
Scars are not proof of failure.
They are proof of becoming.
And everyone in every conflict
is growing in ways unseen.
Give yourself the grace
you so easily extend to others.
-Kerri-Elizabeth-

SONSHINE FOR YOU 
This is so true. We all have moments we wish we could take back, but they don’t get the final say over who we are. A mistake is something we did, not who we are becoming.
The Bible reminds us of this too. In Lamentations 3:22–23, it says God’s mercies are new every morning. That means every day we get another chance. And Romans 8:28 tells us that God can work all things even our failures together for good.
Scars don’t mean God is done with us. Sometimes they’re the very places where He shapes us the most. Give yourself grace. God already does.
