I need to have an honest moment, friend. I’ve been feeling so overwhelmed lately. It’s like I’m fighting every urge to not feel like a failure, as a woman, a wife, a mom, a friend.

I know I’m probably not the only one with thoughts that keep me up at night.

Or the only one who wrestles with anxiety as my mind spins with worst-case scenarios.

Or the only one who has fears buried deep down that somehow find their way to the surface when I’m alone.

But here’s what I’ve been learning, it’s okay to celebrate the wins even when you’re still struggling in other areas.

And it’s okay to admit that life can be cruel, unpredictable, even traumatic… yet still good, peaceful, and full of purpose.

So, friend, take a breath. We’re going to be okay not because we’ve got it all figured out, or because everything’s in our control, but because we have a good Father who takes good care of His children.

So friend, I’ll be here tonight, praying and hoping right along with you.

Love,
Em
