I am preparing a workshop for the women's conference at our church next weekend. I am very excited to share and believe that God has a message He wants to share through me. However, I am thinking today about how hard it can be to be transparent in life as well as in a leadership role. It's even hard to share the blunt force of my true feelings with friends or my husband at times. Can he handle the ugliness of my feelings, my pain? Can they still love me when they see the unpretty parts?
Transparency is a gift we give. Often, when I give it, I receive it back as well. So I will step out, be transparent, and allow what others "intended to harm me" to be used for good (Genesis 50:20).
So be it.
Bunions Day 9

Day 9I am still in pain, but I’m at least not taking oxycodone any longer.
At least not most days. Most days I stay on a routine of Tylenol every 4
hours...

I love the way you say ugliness of your feelings - I realized today that I have quite a bit of that in one situation in particular. Ugh.
I LOVE that you are blogging - I have missed you so so so so so so so so so so so much!
