Happy Saturday morning. I usually keep my business page focused on mental health and wellness, however, this morning I feel compelled to go a different route for the day. I am 100% a holistic therapist and practice from the lens that we sometimes need more than a pill, a session of talk therapy, etc. What I am sure of is that we need something to look forward to in order to not feel helpless and hopeless. We need to believe that there is something or someone bigger than us (higher power). Your “higher power” may be an array of people/things, my higher power is Jesus Christ. It flooded my soul and did me a lot of good to wake up this morning and see these drawings from my niece and 2 grandsons. They completed these on their own, no instruction/coercion, just their collective thoughts, and for that I am grateful. The point of this post is not to try to “stuff religion down your throat” rather it is to encourage. If you, like me, have tried mind altering substances or other means of escape in the past to escape the pain, let me encourage you to try Jesus. Just try him, it is a money back guarantee. I am not saying “well if you will pray more or harder you will get healed”, what I am saying is that he (Jesus) will be your comforter and your hope to make it through. Follow Jesus, not church folk. Sometimes “church folk” let us down and hurt us. Let me encourage you to find a church service tomorrow and just show up…. As you are. Jesus doesn’t want you to seek him “when you get it all together”, he wants you to crawl up in his arms and find rest now, just as you are.
