{Starts Today!} January Bible Reading Plan for Hard Things ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป


Hello Reader,

Join me in reading a verse daily in January about doing hard things with God's power and strength.

What Does "I Can Do Hard Things" Mean?

In today's world, it's common to downplay difficult work. Think about the messages we get all around us.

  • Lose 30 pounds in 3 days! (Just buy this $50 protein powder.)
  • One vote will solve our country's budget issues. (I'm the best political candidate.)
  • I can fix your credit. (Sign up for my coaching program.)

That is all just clever marketing.

Some things are hard because they are hard. Surviving tough stuff is not supposed to be easy, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

Quit shoulding on yourself with phrases like "I should be able to handle it. " Instead, remind yourself of the difficult things you've survived in the past.

Sara with Jackfruit

Hello Reader, Do you do smart swaps? Smart swaps are healthier food choices to lower calories and make weight loss easier, like using plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, or baking with applesauce instead of oil.
