"Just the knowledge that honest effort was a transforming experience...and that...love was redemptive." - It's Not About the Bike, My Journey Back to Life by Lance Armstrong

This quote stood out to me recently.

To me it means-

~ stepping forward and trying your best whether it is a new challenge or familiar routine. Regardless of the outcome, it can change you, transform you.

~ that despite how uneasy, worried, or fearful I may feel about the UNKNOWN, I can trust that it will be transformative...and when I think of transformation, it is always positive.

~ "love was redemptive" reminds me of Christ's love for me. He is always pursuing me, redeeming me, casting light into my darkness. Love is healing. Love restores!
