You will be what you are becoming

Last night I heard the most profound line ever from my pastor- "You will be (in the future) what you are becoming (now)". This rang so true to my heart. 

Through this past year I think I have truly transformed as a person, I've become more like the person I want to be in the future. And while I'm not completely everything I aim to be, I know I'm heading the right direction. 

Sometimes you have to appreciate where you've been to better understand where you want to go. The previous year made me question a lot about myself, and made me realize I was on the wrong path... a path of low self worth and numerous bad choices.

Through lots of tears, meds, wine, church, dancing, shopping, eating, running, and alone time I think I've decided who the person I want to become. I want to be that person that is a good friend, yet takes care of herself too. I want to be a dedicated professional, who aims high, and has true job satisfaction. I want to be someone who is spiritual and can pull from the word in times of need. I want to be a good wife and mom to my future children. I want to have a mended heart so that I can fully pour into others. 

The other night I told one of my girlfriends "Every now and then you have to be proud of yourself for how far you've come." So I guess that is what I'm doing right now, patting myself on the back for pushing through towards being a better Savvy.
