"If you stumble, make it part of the dance."

You will. In your life and in your story, you will stumble. 

You will face conflict. If you never face conflict in your life, then you are not really living.

Think of every good story you've read or every good movie you've watched. There is always conflict.

The main character might not handle it well at first. 

You might not handle it well at first.

You might stumble.

But messing up doesn't mean the story is over. The best stories are the ones that are redeemed by God's grace and lessons learned the hard way.

We might all want to live a life where nothing bad happens. But we don't want to watch movies and read books where nothing bad happens. Because even if it isn't reality, we want to relate.

You will stumble in your story. God can use your hiccups and trip-ups for a greater purpose. Your story can be used for His glory.

It can be a part of the dance.

​Let the redeemed of the Lord
share their story.
​Psalm 107:2a

Beautifully written! I've never thought of myself much of a dancer but have had lots of practice due to the stumbles in my life!

Thanks for visiting me here, Lori! I am a TERRIBLE dancer! My kids are horrified when I try, LOL!
But--yes, relating stumbles to being part of a dance--I've got some moves!

    Welcome to a page of my journal....a place where I will randomly post stories that document my life, and some tips for helping you to document yours.

    I like to write down my thoughts and stories for a lot of reasons. But mostly when I write them, it makes me want to live them better. 

    That's my story. What's yours? Leave me a comment or drop me a note on the contact page.
