Despair Is Not My Future

DAY 2 OF 6

Where do we start now?

You can be at rock bottom and inevitably there are individuals who may want to kick you while you are down. Keep looking up. Keep turning to the One who uses evil for good.

There are scores of people on this earth with unprocessed or hidden trauma, and it can translate to “hurting people, hurt people.”

On top of the pain and despair you may be experiencing, there may be no one else in your life to turn to. You may feel isolated, but there is a God who loves you immensely.

If no one has told you this before, let me be the first: You are loved. You are valued. You are seen.

Turn your gaze upward rather than outward, and your view will come into focus to a God who will meet you where you are.

Part of my healing journey was setting boundaries and not allowing others to steal my joy. I have learned that I am not responsible for “joy stealers,” but I am responsible for who I let in and how I choose to respond to them.

About this Plan

Despair Is Not My Future

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 – This verse is lovely on a coffee mug, but how lovely is it when you need to apply it in real life? Over the next six days I pray you experience a flicker of light: hope in the darkness.
