Stories through the Wilderness
Beyond the Mirror
Our reflection doesn’t always tell the truth. Over the years, I’ve wrestled with body image, weight changes, and stress that took a toll on both my mind and body. But through faith, I’ve learned that health isn’t about a number—it’s about how we feel, move, and live in the bodies God designed. The mirror may lie, but God never does. He calls us fearfully and wonderfully made.
Please Don’t Tell Me How to Grieve
Grief doesn’t follow rules or timelines—it’s as unique as the love that was lost. In this heartfelt reflection, I share the story of losing my dad at fifteen and the painful lesson I learned when others judged the way I grieved. Whether your grief is fresh or years old, this post is a reminder that healing looks different for everyone—and that compassion, not correction, is what the grieving heart needs most.
“Please Don’t Tell Me How to Grieve” invites readers to walk through loss with grace, presence, and faith, remembering that even in our deepest sorrow, God meets us with comfort and understanding.
Mental Health Crisis and My Call to Hope
Our nation is hurting—and so are its people. In this post, I share how my own battle with addiction and trauma opened my eyes to a deeper truth: lasting healing must include faith. Mental health tools help us cope, but only God can restore what’s broken. Even in a divided world, hope still has a name—and His name is Jesus.
