Hey, my friend. Today I want to talk about something many of us quietly struggle with—what to do when hard feelings show up. The kind that don’t politely knock and leave. The kind that linger. The kind that feel overwhelming, confusing, or heavy. Maybe it’s grief. Or anxiety. Or anger you VIEW MORE
When We Ignore God’s Sacred Nudges
Hey, my friend. Last week, we talked about the ways we sometimes ignore God’s leading—those moments when we sense Him inviting us to something, and we hesitate, delay, or quietly say no.

Ways We Ignore God’s Leading
Hey, my friend. You never ignore what God’s asking you to do, do you? I didn’t think so. It’s just me, isn’t it? Just kidding. I know I’m not the only one who struggles with this.

How to Tell the Difference Between Healing and Avoiding
Hey, my friend. There’s a question many of us carry quietly: “Am I actually healing… or am I just not dealing with this?” It’s a vulnerable question.
