If you’re scared to go where it's messy, you’ve forgotten how far Jesus came to get you!
It broke you once. Don’t let it break you every day after. You’ve got permission to put it down. The question is, will you?
Not everything you’ve been carrying was meant for your shoulders. It’s okay to lay it down. Healing starts with release.
Grace doesn’t ask you to drag your chains into tomorrow. It invites you to drop them, right here, right now. Your story isn’t about what broke you. It’s about the God who heals you.
🔥 NEW EPISODE IS LIVE 🔥 What if God still wants to use you… even after the relapse, the failure, the shame? Not later. Not “once you’re better.” Now. Right now. Episode: “What If God Still Wants to Use You?” is out now. Share this with someone who thinks it’s too late.…

The weight of the past was never meant to be permanent. What broke you doesn’t have the right to own you. Set it down. Breathe. Step into the new life God has for you.
You don’t have to keep holding onto the very thing that crushed you. Strength isn’t proven by carrying the pain; it’s proven by releasing it. There’s freedom waiting on the other side of what you refuse to carry any longer.
We all pick up things along the way: trauma, labels, guilt. But carrying what broke you isn’t strength, it’s bondage. Real strength is found in release. Ask yourself: What would change if I finally let it go?
Trauma can leave scars. Failure can leave regrets. Grief can leave emptiness. But God specializes in taking what broke you and making it beautiful.
Shame says, “Hide.” Fear says, “Quit.” The enemy says, “You’re finished.” But grace says, “Get up, I’m not done with you yet.”
The storm can strip the roof off your house. The pain can strip the smile off your face. The trial can strip the strength from your body. But nothing can strip the love of God from your life.
You can lose the job. You can lose the relationship. You can lose the strength to stand. But if you haven’t lost Jesus, you haven't lost Hope!
I’m thankful today for the freedom we have and for the men and women who paid the price to protect it. Hope you all have a great day with family, good food, and some time to slow down and enjoy life. Stay safe, make some memories, and let’s not forget how blessed we really are.
When someone is emotionally unavailable, it’s not your job to knock louder. It’s your responsibility to stop shrinking your needs just to feel accepted. Healthy relationships don’t require self-abandonment.
Some of the greatest warfare you’ll ever face is right before the breakthrough you’ve been praying for. Hell pushes hardest when Heaven is about to open. Don’t give up now. You’re closer than you think.
