Hope…

Easter reminds me that no matter how dark the night, the morning always comes.
Hope rose with Jesus that day, and it still rises in our hearts today. He conquered death so we could live fully, freely, and forever in Him.
Jesus is alive, and because of that, hope is alive in me. -denise marie

Road Trips…

Wind Turbines

Yesterday we were on our way to see family in the Bay from Sacramento, old school music on the radio, blue skies and a smooth ride as many people were on the road heading to their destinations to enjoy their Thanksgiving day.

A wave of excitement came over me when I saw the Wind Turbines, because it means that we are almost there!

At times it’s hard to not live near family, but I am so grateful for a quick trip to the Bay or to Washington State.

Visiting family is a refuel to my soul!🩷

It’s ok…

Healing doesn’t happen linear, it ebbs and flows and many days I’m battling my mindset as I demolish thoughts that try to set off my anxiety. There are many days when I can smile and genuinely say “today’s a good day” and then there are days when I can barely get out of bed, and yet choose to say “today is a good day…to…rest. Both days are good, it’s all about how I choose to respond to my circumstances.

Trauma…

Healing from trauma is a one day at a time process, and is never a “one size fits all” approach. The stigma behind mental illness continues to keep people suffering in silence. If you are hurting, please reach out to the following hotline for help, support or someone just to talk to:

1-800-273-TALK (8255)

You are not alone, you matter and God loves you.

The truth…set me free.

The truth…continues to set this captive free.
