Hey there! I want to pass along a little nugget of knowledge that\u2019s been bouncing around in my brain lately. Every afternoon on\u00a0my show, I share \u201cOne Truth\u201d and talk about how it applies to all of us. My goal is to always give you\u00a0some hope and inspiration. And let me tell you, I find so much of that same hope from my online friend Kim Jones-Pothier<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not too long ago, she said something that really hit home for me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“Never be afraid or embarrassed to struggle! We’ve all been in a struggle. There is absolutely no shame in working hard to get to where YOU want to be. God loves you so much\u2026receive that!”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Wow, right? Short and simple, but so powerful. If we\u2019re being real, we\u2019ve all faced struggles<\/a>\u2014big ones, small ones, and all the ones in between. Maybe you\u2019re navigating your health, worrying about finances, dealing with work stress, or wrestling with doubt. Maybe it\u2019s family drama or relationship issues. Trust me, I\u2019ve been through all of that myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But here\u2019s the good news\u2014you don\u2019t have to carry that burden alone. That\u2019s where Jesus steps in. Instead of throwing in the towel, you can reach out to Him with everything you\u2019ve got. Tell Him what\u2019s on your heart\u2014the struggles, the frustrations, the things that feel too heavy. He\u2019s listening, and He cares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you\u2019ve been trying to fix it all on your own and feel like you\u2019re running on empty. It\u2019s time to lean on Jesus. Obey His Word, trust in His promises, and believe that He\u2019s got what you need. He\u2019s the God of new beginnings, and He loves you more than you can imagine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go<\/em>.” \u2014 Joshua 1:9<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever you\u2019re facing today, take a deep breath and hand it over to Him. You are not alone in this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
