Summary

There are some moments in life that stop you in your tracks and make you confront what it means to be held together by God’s grace. This week, This week, I’m opening up about the accident that left me in a neck brace, the reality of living in between miracles, and what it looks like to trust God when life suddenly feels fragile. We’re talking about vulnerability, strength, being cared for when you’re used to caring for everyone else, and the hard truth that some of us don’t know how much we matter until life forces us to slow down. If you’ve ever found yourself trying to push through pain, avoid your emotions, or figure out how to trust God in an uncertain season, this conversation is for you.

0:58.2	how I'm processing and how I'm feeling about everything.
1:01.4	It's funny because I knew that I was going to, like, record this episode.
1:05.4	And in recording this episode today, I knew that I was probably going to have feelings about it, but I woke up and I was
1:12.0	feeling a little sad today. There's nothing I can do about that because once I drop something,
1:18.4	it takes an act of God to help me get up. But I woke up a little sad today because I think I'm just, I'm two weeks into this and I have, you know, I have a little ways ahead of me.
