Navigating Trauma with Grace

1. Acknowledge the Impact Without Shame - Trauma from world events is valid—even if it’s “secondhand.” The soul can grieve over injustice, war, suffering, and division. - Isaiah 53:3 reminds us that Christ was “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” Your sensitivity is not weakness; it reflects His heart. 2. Limit Exposure with Stewardship, Not Avoidance - Curate your media intake like you would your diet: nourishing, not overwhelming. - Consider setting “news sabbath” days or using filters that prioritize redemptive stories and community-based solutions. 3. Ground Yourself in Eternal Perspective - Colossians 3:2 says, “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” This isn’t escapism—it’s spiritual recalibration. - Create visual reminders like writing out Bible verses on sticky notes and place them on your mirror or fridge that contrast temporal chaos with eternal peace. 4. Use Scripture as a Trauma Lens - Psalm 147:3: “He healeth the broken in heart, and bin...

Devotional | Finding Contentment in Life

In a world that constantly pushes us to seek more, it can be challenging to find true contentment. As Christian women, we are called to find our satisfaction and peace in Christ.  “Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.” -Philippians 4:11 The apostle Paul, writing from a place of imprisonment, shares a profound lesson on contentment. Despite his circumstances, Paul learned to be content in every situation. This contentment was not based on external conditions but on his relationship with Christ. Contentment is a state of the heart and mind. It is about trusting God’s provision and being grateful for His blessings. When we focus on what we have rather than what we lack, we cultivate a spirit of thankfulness. This gratitude shifts our perspective and helps us see God’s goodness in every aspect of our lives. Proverbs 15:16 reminds us,  “Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble ...

Devotional |The Beauty of A Gentle Spirit

A Devotional for Highly Sensitive Christian Women If you are a highly sensitive Christian woman, you have a unique ability to sense and respond to the needs of your family with deep empathy and love. This sensitivity is a precious gift from God, enabling you to create a nurturing and peaceful home. However, it can also lead to feeling overwhelmed by the demands of parenting and homemaking. In these moments, remember the words of Psalm 46:10. God calls us to be still and recognize His presence.  Psalm 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth." When the noise of daily life becomes too much, take a moment to pause and connect with Him. Your sensitivity allows you to feel deeply, but it also means you need to find quiet spaces to recharge and seek His guidance. Remember that for all believers God's Spirit now dwells in your spirit. You can also seek guidance from Him through His word and in prayer. That's...
