✨Last night, our barn was filled with women hungry for God, healing, truth, and freedom.
As I shared part of my story and taught Beneath the Labels, we talked about how sometimes the labels we’ve carried for years can feel so familiar that they feel like our skin. We wear them for so long that we mistake them for our identity.
But trauma is not identity.
Pain is not identity.
What others have said about you is not identity.
One by one, women walked to the cross carrying labels they had worn for years. Labels spoken by others. Labels born from trauma, rejection, shame, betrayal, and heartbreak. They nailed them to the cross and surrendered them to God.
Then they walked to a second cross and chose a heart containing a truth about who God says they are. 💗
The room was filled with tears, hugs, prayer, and hope.
One of the most important things we talked about is that freedom isn’t just a moment—it’s a daily decision to renew our minds and agree with what God says about us instead of what our wounds have taught us.
As messages and testimonies began coming in afterward, I was reminded once again that God can take our deepest pain and use it to bring healing to someone else. 🌿
After years of dreaming about standing before women and sharing the hope of Christ, it is humbling and incredible to watch God bring those dreams to life. I truly feel like I am finally walking in what God has called me to do. ✨
