Please note: today's episode deals with sensitive issues like reproductive complications and infertility. 

What do you do when you when you find out that you won't be able to have children as a single woman?

Today, I'm sharing a part of my story - how Jesus has faithfully walked me through endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, uterine fibroids, and ultimately a hysterectomy at the age of 30. Though I've walked through the valley of the shadow of death and struggled with how my body has not functioned correctly - Jesus has been faithful through it all. It is my privilege to share both the difficulties, depressions, and wrestlings with the Lord as well as His blessings, gifts and comforts. As the old hymn goes, this is my story, this is my song...Praising my Savior all the day long. 

I pray this testimony meets you in the hard places in your life, encouraging you that your unknown future can be trusted to a known God (Corrie Ten Boom).

Loving the Lord means surrendering to Him every day. Jesus says we can't be His disciple if we don't pick up our cross and deny ourselves. What does this practically look like? What does it mean to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength? Is the Lord expecting perfection?

In today's episode, I talk about why following the Lord doesn't mean perfection, and why the Lord is pleased when we wrestle and fight to know Him and lose everything for His sake, to know Him and be faithful where He's called us.

Jesus tells us three times in the Gospels that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength. But what does that mean? How does that look? In today's episode I talk about how Jesus Himself showed us how to fulfill that commandment in the example He gives us. And though we won't do it perfectly like He did, He has given us everything we need to love the Lord with all we are and how that then shapes how we love others as we love ourselves.
