GRIT
Gritty faith is not complete certainty, but the confident pursuit of a mystery that your soul can’t help but find beautiful.
“I experience faith as a YEARNING for something beautiful that I can sense but not fully grasp. For me, faith is more about longing and thirsting than knowing and possessing.”
-David Brooks, NYT
Grit: courage and resolve; a trait possessed by individuals who demonstrate passion and perseverance toward a destination, despite being confronted with significant obstacles.
The Good News: Grit CAN be DEVELOPED
Prioritize STRETCHING over STAGNATION
Prioritize SHARPENING over SETTLING
Prioritize SIGNIFICANCE over SELF
“Now is the best time of all.”
-Jimmy Carter
You are living for something this world can give you vs. the assignment God has for you.
You are living for a finish line that isn’t really worth finishing for.
