Welcome back to Words Can Heal. I'm Shakira Nae, your host, navigating life's journey with a faith-filled perspective. In today's episode, we delve into the essence of life, emphasizing the significance of giving ourselves grace to grow and change.

Inspired by personal experiences, we explore topics ranging from the joy of early mornings to coping with grief and embracing the unknowns of growth and change. I share insights on how leaning on God varies in different life moments, drawing from three separate occasions of grief this year alone.

Reflecting on the challenges of facing the unknown, we discuss the importance of welcoming growth and change, overcoming the fear associated with uncertainties. The episode includes a powerful quote from Jackie Hill Perry’s devotional, encouraging listeners to find joy in God’s diverse generosity.

Listed verse: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed." (Psalms 34:18 NLT)
