Well well well, life has continued to stay pretty spicy amid the healing journey.
What healing journey? The journey to discover and create a safe life by surrounding myself with people who support me, as well as manage the PTSD condition that I've been diagnosed with after a lifetime spent being abused by my covert narcissistic birth person, as well as surviving the toxic environment of a narcissistic family cult.
My faith in Christ, in the gospel, has been the foundation in which I am able to move in liberty and grace to do what's necessary to do just that. And man, have I needed that this last week as I found myself cutting a person loose that has been in my close circle for 20 years.

Sometimes we think that we can handle the differences that divide an unbeliever from a believer, or that we can fix people who are not able to handle reflection, or look at themselves and their need for the truth.
And sometimes we just realize some people are not safe for our healing, or supportive in the ways we need them to be.
That we can't be whatever they need us to be, either.

Press play and be encouraged in your faith, inspired to take the necessary steps to prioritize your healing journey, and potentially learn from my mistakes--being comforted by the comforts I've been given from God in our mutual faith.

Need to explore the gospel? Start here knowing the gospel isn't do, it's done. and it's easy. Simply believe on Christ's finished work. His death, burial, and resurrection for life everlasting the moment you believe.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4

Today I do a brief checkpoint on life, and then dive into how the revelation about the world's activities should be affecting us as believers. It's never been more clear the times we are in. I want to encourage my sisters in Christ that its none of ourselves, and not a time to go back to works to be ready for Christ, but to stay abiding in His faithfulness.
Lighten people's load with the good news, don't put a burden on others that you yourself don't even manage.

You can find the gospel starting here:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4

We're headed into our third year together, and kicking it off with a fresh new season. What will it entail? Only the Lord knows, but it's starting with an episode where I open up a bit more to you guys about my backstory, how it played into who I am today, and how the Lord has taken me through and shown me I can do hard things, and here's the thing: so can you.

As you know, it all starts with the gospel of grace.
Putting my faith and trust in the finished and redemptive work of Christ changed my life, and it continues to morph and grow as I lean into what He has for me, as I rely on Him for all things---but especially my peace and sound mind.

I pray this episode blesses you-and that you know that you've been given the freedom and grace to go after what you need to have peace in your life, too.

Where can you find the gospel? In the Word, it's all over-but start here:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
