Ch14: Tears in Paradise: The Dark Side Nobody Saw


Listen Later

Y’all. We went from sea life adventures to the dark side — and I mean that glitterally.


In this episode, we’re in Chapter 14 of Unboxing Blu, and I’m telling you, this one got real. My daddy disowned me — again. Everything I owned got soaked on the side of a highway in an open trailer in a rainstorm. My great-grandmother’s diaries from 1906. My mannequin Victoria. Gone. And I was undiagnosed bipolar, crying in a window seat on a cruise ship for days, begging God to just show me something.


And then the sun broke through the clouds.


Y’all, I am not being dramatic. It had been dark for eleven, maybe twelve days straight. And for three to five minutes, the Lord showed up right there in that window and said — I’ve got you.


This chapter is for anyone who has ever been so heavy with depression that you couldn’t even pray. Couldn’t move. Couldn’t explain it. I’ve been there. Postpartum. Bipolar. PTSD. The whole thing. And I’m here to tell you — there is power in the name of Jesus, even when all you can manage is a praying hands emoji to one safe person.


That counts. He hears it.


Come on in. This one’s tender, it’s honest, and somebody needed to hear it today.
