A Growth Mindset through Faith

I have always been a leader and self-reliant sort of person but when I take an introspective look at myself I realize that I cannot do anything without God. When I pray daily I realize that after I thank and praise the Lord I am forever asking Him for help. Jesus always offers me hope and that always makes me feel free. It is difficult to express failure or anxiety to others but to Jesus I can express all that I am feeling. My crosses have drawn me nearer to God so I know that God allows difficulties so that I can get closer to Him. Jesus has drawn me into his place of wounding and when I was filled with Him then and only then could I be healed and resolve my problems with strength, hope, determination, drive, and perseverance. I have always known that I cannot fix my problems on my own even though I am quite resourceful when I need to be using strategies and assistance from others to resolve my problems. The Church has always taught me that the process of healing needs the process of grace. When I have recognized my weakness is when I was able to persevere and to work through it. I need to pray for all of the virtues of the Holy Spirit with joy, hope, peace, trust, and courage.I need to have a growth mindset not a fixed mindset in order to succeed or to overcome my obstacles and NEVER GIVE UP! I always tell my students that when we fall down we need to use it as a learning lesson and try again in moving forward little by little. "Rome was not built in one day!"

We need to process our wounds so that we can begin to discover and heal them.Others can make it through others who have experienced what you have  experienced so they can help you better because they have been there where you are at. That person can be a contagion to you. You can be a Eucharist  to them and they can be a Eucharist to you! To doubt and to fear is healthy and normal. God is always working in us. Life is a process and God has a plan. To lose HOPE is a sin but God does hear the cry of the poor and we must stay strong! We need to go forward with joy through our challenges of life because LA VITA E BELLA!
