Developing a routine of good habits can be the best way to see lasting change. Getting in shape takes a routine that takes work and effort each day. There are so many goals in life that require a routine, including growing in Christ, saving money, keeping everything clean and organized.. the list goes on. But taking small steps in the right direction is the next best thing to do if I want to make any progress
“In fact, the longer we struggle with a problem, the more likely we are to define ourselves by that problem (divorced, addicted, depressed, co-dependent, ADD). We come to believe that our problem is who we are. But while these labels may describe particular ways we struggle as sinners in a fallen world, they are not our identity! If we allow them to define us, we will live trapped within their boundaries. This is no way for a child of God to live (p. 260)!” Paul Tripp in Instruments in the Redeemer’s Hand
