Even from the creation of the world, God is longing to be in relationship with Adam and Eve. That is His heart for us, too. To be in a authentic, love-filled relationship with us. 

Today, I walk through how relating to yourself kindly deeply matters because God is a deeply kind and relational God. In return, this helps us overcome OCD and other mental health battles.

It takes time to heal. 

So many times we are rushed in our mental health healing journey, causing us to be harsh toward ourselves. Being hurried and trying to “fix” everything in an instant will only delay recovery. It also keeps us from experiencing God’s deep love for us and true Joy.

When we slow down, we can let God heal the deeper parts of our hearts and see ourselves through a lens of security in Him.

Tune in to hear how you can practically slow down and the benefits it has to healing from mental illness!
