I'm a sinner saved by grace, treasured by my Savior, and I have a purpose He will fulfill. He needs no one's approval but He does ask for my willingness. Here I am, Lord ❤

The messages and body language of a caring woman. Be careful or she'll stop caring because it hurts her heart! #Real #women #empathy #dating #love

It's challenging to accept support. Partly because we are usually the responsible one, and partly when we seek support and are let down, we take it very hard. Being okay meeting your own needs but being okay giving or receiving support.

Say what you are really feeling. If you don't, you're being deceptive to a certain degree. Do you mean to deceive? No, only to spare the other person the truth you think they can't handle. Better to honestly speak the truth and let them deal with their own reaction.#Boundaries

I've been fascinated with attachment theory in 2021 and I'm surprised to see how we can default to one of these 4 patterns according to our experiences in life. It seems to have a lot to do with childhood and how our caregivers related to us.

I won't remain where I'm not wanted. If you push me away, I'll go away. If you act as if I'm annoying or a nuisance, I'll make myself scarce. And if you spitefully try to show me my insignificance or place by purposefully ignoring me, I will push you away.#HealthyRelationships

It is very hard but I trust God that if he leads me to someone, someone to trust, he knows what he's doing! #HealthyRelationships #FaithOverFear #VictorNotVictim

@RebeccMcLaugh Or one of them could be dead. I finally had to divorce my husband because he just got more abusive. In the end, he tried to strangle me. There are times when divorce saves your life and there lives of your kids. I'm not agreeing with her but divorce does have a place.
