One of the hardest things to answer for a child, after one or both parents leave is, “Why wasn’t I enough?” Possibly because they’ll never get that answer, and the feel devalued because of it. One of the greatest things I have been learning is that no matter who leaves God is always there, and you’re worth far more than you can fathom to HIM!

For a long time I felt unworthy, not because of anything I did, but my thoughts were that if my biological parents didn’t want me who would? Turns out God did, and so did my parents, I’ve been so blessed to be shown God’s love quite literally. God is the Ultimate Father, for those without a Father this Father’s day, I’d be happy to share my heavenly Father with you 🙌🏻

Saturday Soliloquy

Tonight as I thought about what a mess I’ve been lately, I realized it’s because I’ve been holding onto things that I should’ve given to God. Sure there are things that hurt us, break us down even but they lose their power in the Father’s hands!

We’ve all stressed over things, let them claim our identity, but the Father is the one who holds us! Our past is past, our future secure all because of Jesus, does that mean the enemy won’t bring up past hurts to bring us down? No, but we have the power to claim victory in the Father’s name!

We are not a victim of circumstance, we are not put in places by accident, we are made to fulfill a purpose, our main purpose is to glorify the Father with our gifts, but the greatest gift is to know you’re loved. You’re loved no matter how far you wander, you’re loved no matter how much you’ve been hurt,you’re loved no matter how many times you’ve been rejected, the FATHER chose you!

Thursday Thoughts

This morning as I was driving to work, the song “Rescue” by Lauren Daigle came on and it hit me a little differently than normal, as I actually listened to the words.

No matter the mess we’re in the Father hears our cries and responds, HE knows our hearts. The beauty is HE meets us in our mess, no judgement just love and Grace! I’m forever grateful that in the moments when words won’t do, I know the ONE who can read tears!
