Perhaps you grew up believing the lie that ‘feelings are unsafe.’
Do you know how to feel what you’re feeling? If you are already comfortable in this, does it lead you to safe exposure with Jesus or pull you towards quick-fix, fast answers in substitutional comforts that are away from Him?
As a mom of a rising senior, I hit the wall of emotion. I’m ready to stop pretending that everything is “fine,” in my heart.
One season to the next, we balance our emotions and steady ourselves with something that stabilizes the pain.
Our hearts are homesick for Heaven, and we can best stabilize ourselves in life’s shaking when we rest in grace.
“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace.” -2 Thessalonians 2:16
Grace holds us together in all life seasons.
I’ve never experienced an earthquake, but I can imagine that you need to hold onto something for stability in the shaking. As disciples, in assignments and life seasons, as wives and mothers, we need an unshakeable anchor.
The hope of the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is our comfort and ability to confess that we are unshaken when we are shaken.
I hope that this episode encourages you. Dive into the richness of this scripture and cling to Him.
Cheering Alongside,
Brittany
