For many years Natalie Hanemann's prayer life was one of routine and came from a place of obedience. But her heart longed for more. Natalie was struck when she heard about "the interior life," as well as Saint Catherine of Sienna's words about the "interior cell."

At around the same time Natalie's family was experiencing significant brokenness--this inspired Natalie to seek God with all her heart and soul.

Natalie's heart was opened and soul touched as she found God in everything, from Adoration to hikes to runs in nature.

Natalie realized she had been trying to fix her family herself. She discovered Christ walking with her and not only offering to carry her "backpack of burdens," but holding her hand as she proceeded forward in these relationships that mattered most.

Natalie experienced profound healing and sharpening--she was healed from a judgemental spirit and learned to be more loving and merciful.

Natalie wants listeners to know that God is speaking intimately and personally to each of us. May we seek God with all of our hearts.
