Slapping on a Band-Aid Won’t Really Heal You

By
August 28, 2019

Healing from hurt can be difficult. Ever get a wound that was so bad and painful that you just didn’t want to mess with it? So instead you cover it up with a bandage so that you don’t have to deal with it or feel the pain. You just hoped that it would heal while it was covered up! Well, unfortunately, covering it up is a temporary fix that’s really not going to do much for the healing process. In fact, it might actually get worse and become infected! One day, that bandage is going to need to come off and the wound will be exposed again! And guess what? You’re going to have to deal with it!Continue reading

Everyone who knows me knows that I have any extremely active brain and that I can rarely sleep well because I am always thinking! My mom always tells me to take out my brain, put it away in the drawer and then go to sleep haha. I often will have a pen and notebook at my bedside to write down any thoughts or ideas that come to mind in the middle of the night. This usually ensures I don’t forget the thought/idea and I can address it the next day. If I don’t do this then my brain will just keep repeating the thought or idea constantly in an attempt not to forget it, which leaves me with a not so restful sleep.

This particular night I was attempting to sleep haha, but I just kept repeating in my mind “use the darkness to turn up the light.” I was asking God what does that even mean? Continue reading
