#3- Apologized

It was late, I was tired, but it was still no reason to snap at my sister. While lying in bed I thought, “the easy thing would be to go to sleep right now, but I’m taking a hard thing challenge, so…” I did the hard thing, I apologized. Apologizing can be hard. Who wants to admit that they are wrong and shamefacedly go back to confess to the victim of their sin . I was wrong. I am sorry. Please forgive me. Sweet words. They show humility, not pride. Apologies are precious.

P.S. My sister and I have a habit of after we apologize we have a pillow fight. I don’t know why. Maybe it just helps us get out any last emotions that we have. (not really) We always leave the room laughing and best buddies again. 🙂

#2- Fought for babies lives at abortion clinic

Recently my brother and mom have been going out to an abortion clinic to be sidewalk counselors to women who are going to have abortions. Me and my younger brother and sister went once to watch and today I went out again with my family. It is a sad and eye opening experience but I enjoy being able to participate in a spiritual battle over life and death. Every mother who walked into that clinic represented a death of a baby, a baby who is precious in the eyes of God. Today my hard thing is fighting for babies who have no voice. They want to yell, “Don’t kill me Mama!” They can’t. But we can. I can. We all can speak up for these babies. It can be hard to stand up for something so controversial, but hey isn’t that why it is on my 100 Hard Things list?

#1- Accepted the 100 Hard Things Challenge

Hey all,
Today I accepted the 100 Hard Things Challenge. This is a challenge to do 100 hard things that put you out of your comfort zone in 3 months. About 1 hard thing a day. This hard thing can be super simple like doing the dishes or super big like raising money to stop world hunger. The challenge is based off of the book “Do Hard Things”.
“Do Hard Things” is a book by Alex and Brett Harris that encourages teens to do hard things and break the myth of adolescence. You can read their book or their blog (therebelution.com). Both are really good. 🙂 For more info on the 100 Hard Things challenge click the link below:

Each day I will post my hard thing on this blog, so keep checking!!! If you want to do the challenge, I encourage you to just go for it!

Priscilla
