Over the last decade my life has changed between marriage, careers, and two little boys. One thing that has not changed is God’s constant presence in my life.
A few years ago, shortly after Gray was born, I felt spiritually broken. I was in the heart of postpartum depression and anxiety. I was angry, confused, I felt like a shell of myself and I didn’t know what to do.
As a pastor, I felt like I had to have it all together even though I felt distanced from God. I was lonely even though I was normally surrounded by people. I was not sure what to do.
I have always been a firm believer that God uses us as his vessels. He used several people in my life to speak his words over me. He surrounded me with a support system that helped me find my way. I eventually began to fill my cup both spiritually and personally.
My prayer this Lenten season is that if you need restoration, that God would provide that for you. No matter where we are in life, he meets us there. We are never too broken, too sinful, too needy, or too anything for God to bring us back to him.
