“I want to share my story, and I want to know yours. I believe with all my heart that sharing our stories, the real, ugly, broken ones, is one of the most powerful things in the world, because to share our story we must first accept it. We must own it. We must stop running from it or shoving it into the corner when company comes over. To share our story is to admit that we've been changed.” InspirationalFaithChangeHealingGraceAcceptancePersonal GrowthMemoirRecoveryStoryBrokenness Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
“Being broken isn't the worst thing. We can be mended and put together again. We don’t have to be ashamed of our past. We can embrace the history that gives us value, and see our cracks as beautiful.” InspirationalHealingMemoirRecoveryUpliftingChristian LivingWholenessBrokennessRepairMended Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
“I want my heart to be the thin place. I don't want to board a plane to feel the kiss of heaven. I want to carry it with me wherever I go. I want my fragile, hurting heart, to recognize fleeting kairos, eternal moments as they pass. I want to be my own mountain and my own retreat.” InspirationalGodDivineTravelEternalMemoirRetreatKairosThin Place Book:Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith Source: Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith
