In a world packed with coaches and consultants and career gurus, I’m learning how there really is no better life coach than God. No safer place to land, no one better equipped to take the pain and disappointment of broken dreams and unmet expectations and recycle them into a life of purpose and meaning. Are we […]
With a pounding heart, my shaking hand filled out the application for the When A Woman Finds Her Voice book launch team a few months back. I had been blogging only a month and all my insecurities rising to the surface reminded me of that as I explained my desire to participate. Will I be […]
Warriors, knights, and soldiers—I see it in them all. A bravery to fight wars, battle madmen, and go to the front lines for freedom. Lives are sacrificed, families are broken, and countries are devastated. I’ve never seen myself as someone ready to face and endure danger or pain. Honestly I’ve tried to avoid pain in […]
Recently I sat in a conference packed with thirty-somethings, humbled by their meaningful lives. These beautiful women were allowing God to shape their hearts, pure, and intentional. It was a juncture I’d missed, my life much different–my thirties a haze of dysfunction. It’s hard for me to fathom I turn fifty in a couple months. […]
What would you do if Jesus was walking in your neighborhood preaching the gospel? Would you run toward him for healing or would you cower in a corner because you were ashamed? For a season I would have turned away from him, fleeing from the Son of God who would easily see what lined my […]
Today my friend Holley Gerth offers a rich vein of encouragement with her new link-up, Coffee for Your Heart, reminding us how very loved we really are. I’m linking up with this existing post because I believe, like Holley does, that we can be free from continually having to prove ourselves, free from feeling we will […]
An inner rawness (a barbaric unfeelingness) can tempt an unhealed heart, callousing our compassion until it runs cold. I read Jo Ann’s words this week and I couldn’t help but see myself. The way her thoughts described mine was unnerving. As she spoke about her numbness toward the events on 9/11, I thought of the […]
Have you ever faced a trial that seemed too monumental to understand? The hurt, rejection, pain, suffering and denial feel so real that your only option is to shut it all out. You turn on autopilot and move through life determined to never open that space in your heart again for fear it will consume […]
One day Jesus and his disciples were walking down the street and ran into a blind man. The disciples wanted to know why the man was blind. “Whose sin caused this?” they asked. Isn’t that just like us? Whose fault is this? Who can we pin this on? Determined to understand, we demand explanations, but far too […]
What an absolute joy it has been to connect with you over this past year. I love how we have grown together, gone deeper still in our healing journey, all while uncovering more of our authentic selves. And I am so excited about what God has in store for us in the coming days. […]
