Sometimes it takes getting pushed to the very edge before you can find your voice and courage to speak out again. Sometimes it takes hitting that rock bottom to realize you’re done descending, and it’s time to rise. Sometimes it takes being told you’re nothing—being made to feel like you’re nothing—to help you see that you are complete.YOU. ARE. ENOUGH.

Sometimes you have to realize that you’ve HAD enough to realize that you ARE enough.

As it turns out, it was that very rock bottom that became the most firm foundation I had ever planted my feet on. A foundation so solid, it finally provided the springboard I needed to outrun that teasing, taunting shadow of unworthiness that had followed me my entire life.

Sometimes “no” is the most loving, gentle answer God can give.

Sometimes it takes great heartbreak to find great healing and even greater wholeness.
