Becoming - Time To Practice

 

There’s a sacred space between who you used to be and who you’re becoming. And if you’re walking through it, you know it’s not always easy.

Old habits, mindsets, behaviors — they don’t just disappear because you’ve decided to grow. They show up again. Sometimes louder than ever. Not because you’re weak, but because they’re familiar. They’ve been your default settings for years.

It’s so easy to fall back into what you’ve always done, or seems familiar. But change doesn’t happen by accident. Growth takes awareness and intention. And familiar is not always a good thing.

When you stand firm in your new beliefs, when you remind yourself who you’re becoming — your new mindset becomes the force that breaks the old one.

And like anything new, it takes practice.

Think about when the world first responded to COVID. We knew it was dangerous. We knew people were dying. But even with that knowledge, it took practice to protect ourselves and others — to remember the mask, keep our distance, and be mindful. Awareness had to become a habit.

Healing and personal growth are no different.

Knowing better is only the beginning. Becoming better? That’s a journey, sometimes a battle. Because the new is unfamiliar and new territory, we tend to stick with what we know, even when its not working, the default is the familiar.

Every time you choose your new self over your old self, you’re shifting. You’re becoming.

So be patient with the process. Keep practicing. Keep showing up.

You’re becoming someone whole, intentional, and healed — and that’s worth the effort.

Bible Verse

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will.”
— Romans 12:2 (NIV)
