A Moment To Breathe: Find Rest In The Mess

DAY 30 OF 30

Building Bridges with Our Stories

Sometimes God asks us to turn the page of our life, but occasionally we get to look back. Recently I returned to the hospital where I had brain surgery. I’m tempted to look the other way as I was where I pushed my legs to walk again. But these pages in my story are the moments when God proved Himself faithful and strong.

You have a story, you know. And God is weaving a tapestry of beauty that will tell of His faithfulness when generations to come read the pages of your life. Inviting someone into your story is not easy – it means you’ll need to reveal a few scars. But Jesus said if people keep quiet, the stones will cry out in praise (Luke 19:40). But there’s no need for the rocks to cry out when we share our stories with each other.

Tell me of your mess; I will feel less alone. Allow me to hold your hand as you share bad news. Call me and we’ll have a dance party, from miles away, because He’s opened another door to your dream.

Share your story with those around you. Let’s be a community that shares our stories, gives Him the glory, and remembers that He is still writing. The story isn’t over yet.
