Eliminate the Need to See Wins as Only Touchdowns

Don’t always focus on the touchdown; sometimes, it’s more important to aim for a first down.

Each small step forward brings you closer to your ultimate goal. As it says in Zechariah 4:10, “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.”

Celebrate progress in steady increments, trusting that God will guide your journey. Embrace each first down as a victory. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination and the outcome is only part of the story. Every step is part of God’s divine plan for you.
