Have you been doing everything right, maybe you are praying, trying, working on the marriage, but you still feel stuck in a way you cannot fully explain?
Do you find yourself waiting for your husband to finally change, finally apologize the right way, or finally understand before you feel like you can begin to be okay?
Have you ever had a moment where what came out of you in the middle of the pain shocked you? Maybe where your reactions did not look anything like the person you want to be and you wondered what was wrong with you?
This is our closing episode of July, a month of Sabbath, celebration, and reflection. And I wanted to end it with the most important turning point in my entire healing journey after betrayal.
In this episode I am sharing the moment that changed everything: when I realized I was powerless over my own reactions and responses, when I stopped asking God to take away my pain and started asking Him to transform my heart, and when I finally understood what it meant to get off the throne and let God be God.
This is the most personal episode I have ever recorded. And I think it might be exactly what you need to hear today, especially if you are wondering why nothing seems to be moving no matter how hard you try.
If you have struggled to make sense of the pain and you are even loosing hope - today’s message will give you the hope that sometimes in the midst of the greatest pain and suffering it is the very place where God begins His deepest work.
