Erin, I appreciated this post so much. I have felt many of the feelings you describe and the reminder to take Jesus at His word and not base our faith on what we feel is a reminder I need daily, so thank you for the reminder today. 🤍

Thanks for sharing your heart, Erin. I can relate with a lot of what you said. My friend Jennifer just released a podcast that you might like - it’s called The Happiest Saddest People. It’s all about telling the truth about the sadness of life, but also the truth and joy of Jesus. 🧡
