Recovery is tough.  It’s a TOUGH process.  Some days you just have to slog through with your muddy boots, and it’s anything but pretty.     You can’t just tell someone, ‘Eat a sandwich and get over it already.’   I know that it seems simple like that, but it’s not quite that simple.  Sometimes...Read More »

I titled this post this way because a really dear gal and friend from Instagram, Janie, took a long Instagram break this year, and this quote from her post stood out to me.   She said that Instagram had become more ‘harmful than helpful’, and she was pressing pause for a while.   That’s what...Read More »

Having hope in the midst of suffering, I don’t believe, would be possible without Jesus Christ.  When I’m struggling with an intense trial, the words of Jesus in John 16:33 come to mind.   I’m going to share the verse before it just to remind you of Jesus’ victorious mindset, even as He went to...Read More »

‘Be still.’   That’s not really easy for me.  For a long time I did not like being quiet.   I like to be busy, in a world like America, where everybody is always busy.  Everybody has a full schedule.   It’s not easy for me to just stop and ask, “Lord what would you...Read More »
