Keep going. Keep trusting. Keep leaning on Him.
When I was younger, I clung to the verse, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" like it was oxygen. It wasn’t just encouraging—it was survival. Christ gave me the strength to get through each day when I didn’t have any strength of my own.
He still does. But back then… it truly felt like life or death.
People often say, “If it weren’t for God, I don’t know where I’d be.” I don’t have to wonder. I know with certainty—I would not be here. I had no will to live. I wanted out.
But Jesus met me there.
He rescued me. He pulled me out of that darkness and set my feet on solid ground. He breathed life back into me when I felt empty and showed me that life was worth living. That kind of transformation doesn’t just change you—it reshapes everything.
From there, God began writing a new story. I went to Bible college, got plugged into a church, served in youth ministry, and even went on a mission trip that deepened my faith in ways I can’t fully put into words.
I met my husband at church. A year later, we were married. The next year, we welcomed our son—who is now about to turn 18 and graduate high school in just 12 days.
Life hasn’t been perfect. Not even close.
There have been hard seasons, unexpected challenges, and moments that stretched us more than we thought we could handle. But through every high and every low, God has been faithful. He has carried us, sustained us, and never once let us go.
So if you’re in a hard place right now, hear this:
God has brought you this far for a reason.
He has a plan for your life.
Don’t give up now.
