Healing is a process that can be different for everyone. So how do you know you are going through it?

Does that heartbreak feel overwhelming? Is it too strong to bear? I’ve got words for you.

An ode to all of you who are tired.

We have many struggles in this world and there is one who gets it all because he has experienced it.

As tempting as it is to get back at the person who hurt, even if it seems easy, consider giving it to God

Holding on to a situation, hurt or person can be more harmful than we know. Why should we make that leap to letting go.l

The reason for why something happened can nag at us. Hopefully these steps bring you peace.

These words are a big part of our healing. Can you accept them as yours?

We say let God heal you but how does he take you on that healing path

If there is one thing I have learned is that time is a necessary part of healing. It’s part of the complete package. Processing what happened being part of this.

We can say we forgive someone but just saying it doesn’t mean you are doing it. Sometimes we have to go deeper to see if we really do. There is a great blessing when we get to the bottom of it.
