Have you ever looked at the mountain in front of you and thought, ‘There is simply no way I can make it to the top’? When we are in the middle of a crisis or a long season of heartache, the future looks like a giant, blurry mess. We try to figure out next month, next year, or how we’ll ever survive a lifetime of this pain.
In this video, my friend Steve Fischer and I want to share a simple phrase that has become a lifeline for our families: NRT—the Next Right Thing. Steve shares how he and his wife Melanie learned to stop trying to fix the unfixable and instead focused on the one small step right in front of them. Sometimes the ‘next right thing’ is just getting out of bed. Sometimes it’s making the bed or finally telling the truth about how you’re really doing. You don’t have to have the whole journey mapped out; you just have to trust the One who does. If you’re feeling paralyzed today, I invite you to listen in. Let’s talk about how to live life one step at a time, resting in the peace that comes when we simply behave as we believe.
