(no title)

Hey you, yes YOU! You there, the one with Cheerios stuck in your hair, yesterday’s clothes still on, with the toothbrush in your hand but you’re wandering around wondering what you were doing.

You the one who makes lunches, and breakfasts, not to mention supper. You make everything and you make everything good and okay for everyone.

But you.

You’re trapped in a cycle of wondering if anyone even notices you, knows you exist. Oh you know they are fully aware of you when you screw up, when there is no supper, no lunch, no clean underwear. Or you forget the playdate. Or your makeup. Or they need someone else to work in the nursery or children’s church, or someone else needs a meal and they call you.

You’re trapped in thoughts that swirl in your mind. 
Will I ever be enough?
Will I ever be good enough?
Is there any hope for me?
Is there enough Jesus for me? Can I trust Him? Does He really hear? Does He really heal? I’ve been like this for so long, just a broken shell, and I’ve been trying to fix myself, because Lord knows I can’t rely on anyone else to do it for me, but it’s just not working anymore.

Dear soul, you are not alone and you have come to the right place! I have been there, so deeply have I been there I thought I would never get out. But Jesus lives and His life reaches deep into the pits we make or just stay in. He not only calls us out of them, He lifts us out and puts our feet on the rock.

In these pages you will find hope for your hurt, joy for your journey, a friend who has been there and lived to tell the tale so you can be free.

So grab your coffee (or tea!), find a comfy chair and let the sweet words of Jesus wash over your weary soul. Find your rest and peace in Him. He frees. He heals.
