I’m not talking about a New Year’s resolution that only lasts a few weeks. I’m talking about serious, long-term transformation. If you answered “Yes!” then join me as I unpack the one thing that you absolutely must have in place…the very foundational focus that must be a top priority…in order to grow in empowerment. …
Sister, what mistake or sin have you been holding onto? You know, that one thing that you keep berating yourself for.
Are you constantly playing out different scenarios of how things could have been different - while battling feelings of guilt, shame, or foolishness? Are you afraid to make choices, even beneficial ones, because of it?
You may have told yourself that you've moved on, but the endless cycle in your head says otherwise. And, friend, I know exactly where you're at.

Thankfully, God revealed the underlying issue to my confusion. …
You know what I'm the most thankful for this year? Having walked through a very real, living-on-the-edge wilderness season with God.
