Yesterday, in the midst of having a good day and week, I posted the above to Facebook.
And then today, a need to just put my head on Jesus’ lap arrived with the morning light.

Today was a harder day. A lot of sadness and learning coming out of me. So I gave myself permission to FEEL those things. To say “I can’t” go to dinner with my parents even though I really wanted to. “I can’t meet a friend for coffee.” Instead, I will recover. I’m learning to listen to my body. To not just push. To live. To slow down.

I took the time to feel some of the hard stuff today. I never understood a healing journey until now — while I’m on a healing journey.
The Lord is my Shepherd

God is with us as recover. He’s with us through everything.

Our friends: Shea and Justin have been on their own journey, and we’ve been honored to walk along with them.
Justin sent us a link to an amazing podcast episode that really spoke to me:
I hope to continue to take you with me on my journey. God is giving me what and who I need to help me on this recovery road. He’s an amazing father. I know that more clearly than I ever have.
