The Brightest Year is About to Happen.

2025/1/3 Edited to

... Read moreEvery year presents challenges that may seem disheartening at first, but these experiences can lead to significant personal growth and development. It's essential to reflect on what you’ve learned from difficulties, as these lessons shape your perspective and resilience. Embrace the notion that brighter days are always ahead, and this outlook can help you tackle future obstacles with optimism. Consider setting new goals based on your insights from the previous year.

Have I become hard because of sin, pride, disappointment, fear, or pain?
A hardened heart isn’t just rebellion—sometimes it’s the result of hurt, disappointment, pride, or repeatedly ignoring God’s voice. One thing I learned today: a soft heart says, “God, I need You.” A hard heart says, “God, I got this.” Lord, keep my heart tender, teachable, and responsive to Y

let’s talk about GENDER DISAPPOINTMENT🥲
hello ◡̈ I think there's a lot of negativity thrown at people for experiencing gender disappointment when discovering their baby's gender, and I find that so silly. It's perfectly normal to feel a little upset if you dreamed of having a daughter and end up with a son, or vice versa.

Anger vs Disappointment
No one really talks about this side of it. When anger isn’t about rage — it’s about disappointment. Disappointment in where you are. Disappointment in how things turned out. Disappointment you don’t know where to put… so it turns into constant irritation. I don’t think I’m an angry person.
