Description
The pressure of unmet milestones and unfulfilled dreams can make you feel like you've already missed out on the life you were "supposed" to have. But you don't have to exhaust yourself trying to keep up in order to enjoy what's right in front of you.
In You Are Not Behind, Meghan Ryan Asbury will help you create a life you love with the one you already have. Drawing on biblical wisdom and relatable stories, Meghan will guide you to
- release the internal shame and external pressure of "where you should be" while still being honest with God (and yourself)
- free yourself from comparison and secretly keeping score with the people around you so you can have the community you long for
- understand the actual meaning of contentment and realize you can hold on to hope for the future without letting it overshadow today's happiness
Authentic and encouraging, You Are Not Behind will teach you to grieve the hard, celebrate the good, and embrace the in-between of where you are and where you want to be.
