He really had to STRIPPPP away the old- the friends, the theology, the ideology and the xpose the underlying insecurity and constant neediness for affirmation from people. I couldn't experience a personal relationship with God until he freed up my heart from all the worldly things that were stored up in it. I was bitter, upset and felt abandoned. I still feel so sometimes but I know how to separate feelings from TRUTH! I can speak over myself and not have to rely on anyone else but god to fulfill that need. I know God will work through people in my life to speak to me so relationships are still ESSENTIAL. Don't under or over estimate the power of community brothers and sisters!

I had to feel empty again in order for God to fill me up with His grace and love.

still healing from things i don't speak about, i just take it day by day

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Wishing is not enough; we must do. -Johann Von Goethe

heyo! a friend of mine, @igetanxiousoverusernames, has recently joined tumblr and she is looking for fellow Christians to follow! she’d prefer blogs that post some specifically Christian content (doesn’t have to be exclusively that but it should be present) and people who are encouraging in regards to mental illness.

as I usually do with these things, I’ll start off by tagging a handful of friends, mutuals, and others who I think are neat and fit the bill. feel free to raise your hand by reblogging or tag others you know, and give our sister in Christ a warm welcome. 💜

(she is also into Lord of the Rings and Queen’s Thief, if that helps anyone!)

Don't doubt God's love for you just because you can't see yourself the way he sees you yet.

“Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you, and I will remove the heart of stone from you, and give you a heart of flesh.”

Ezekiel 36:26

A heart of flesh says, ‘Lord,You know that I love You, but help me to love You more!’ –Charles H. Spurgeon
