Choosing What's Right (Even When It's Hard)

It was a small choice. A moment I could've taken the easy way.

Say nothing. Blend in. Let it slide.

No one would've noticed. No one would've judged me. And honestly… it would've been a relief to just avoid the discomfort.

But something stirred inside me. A quiet conviction. A nudge I've learned to recognize.

So I chose what was right.

Not what was popular.
Not what was convenient.
Not what made me feel immediately better.

And you know what? It didn't feel like a victory in the moment. It felt… heavy. Quiet. Costly.

But later—sometimes days later—peace came.

And it reminded me: Doing the right thing doesn't always feel good right away. But it's always worth it.

We don't talk enough about those hard decisions. The ones that feel small but take everything out of you.

The choice to forgive again.
The choice to not retaliate.
The choice to stay faithful.
The choice to let something go when everything in you wants control.

You're not weak for struggling with it. You're strong because you did it anyway.

God sees what others don't. And obedience—even quiet, trembling, unseen obedience—echoes in eternity.

Much Love & Blessings,

Ramzi
