Growth happens over time, and sometimes it doesn’t. Allow me to explain.
When I look back on my life a year ago, I see areas that I have grown. Yet I see areas I haven’t improved in, or if I have improved it was only marginal. This frustrates me.

A country’s flag gives us a first glance into that country’s culture. Flags have symbols and colors that are meaningful.
The Lebanese flag has the colors red and white on it surrounding a cedar tree. Red represents bloodshed, while white represents purity. The cedar tree represents the Bible. Interesting, huh?

Our ego is tied to our self-image. Egomaniacs have an inflated sense of self, while people with low self-esteem sell themselves short.
Our ego is attached to our desire to control our environment. We like to believe we are in control of our day and our lives. We aren’t.

It’s easy to believe when life is going well. Keep believing with unwavering faith when life is a shitshow and you will be blessing God…
