R.A.D.I.C.A.L. Thoughts
"Optimism leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence."
Helen Keller
Hope and especially confidence are probably in short supply during the early stages of your divorce. I went from feeling confident to feeling unsure of myself on just about every level ... physically, spiritually, emotionally, sexually, socially and on and on. Just remember, you are the same strong, vibrant, beautiful woman you have always been. Now you are going to add victorious, indefeatable, resilient to that list. Your life is not hopeless. In fact, at this very moment, you are on the threshold of a journey of unbelievable fulfillment and beauty. God has a plan for your life and it's not just a "make-do" or "so-so" kind of life. It is a life beyond your wildest dreams. But to make those dreams reality, begin with hope and confidence. You can do it. Be confident in your own inner strength that comes from the greatest power in all the universe. Don't be afraid to hope because that is the beginning of life's greatest achievements. In the process, joy and peace will find you on their own.
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Romans 15:13
