I Am Not Enough, but I Know the One Who Is
The world tells us that we are enough- That if we just love ourselves, build our confidence, and believe in our own worth; we will live a great life. All of these messages are lies, none of these things can bring fulfillment, they leave us trying to reach a mark of enough that we can never measure up to. The truth is you were never created to be enough; We were designed to rest in the perfect one, the one who is more than enough.
I Once Searched for Control
Growing up I faced childhood trauma, sexual abuse, relentless bullying, mental health issues, and the pain of an alcoholic parent. From childhood to young adulthood my life felt out of control, I fell into darkness trying to gain a sense of control. I struggled with my identity and self-worth; I made choices that furthered my feeling of emptiness. I wanted to find control over my own life and agency; I made choices I believed would grant me autonomy only to find a further loss of control.
This book is about trading the worldly illusion of control for true, life-giving freedom that is found in the fear of the Lord. It is a testimony of the peace that comes when we stop trying to be the master of our own life and instead live a life that honors and glorifies God. This story is about taking the old self off and nailing the past to the cross. It is about moving out of fear and shame and stepping into the light and freedom of Jesus Christ.
Christ Reliant Encouragement to Inspire Godly Day-to-Day Living
This book is for anyone struggling with the toxic lies of the world. The never-ending messages that we need to measure up and believe that we are enough on our own. The messages that we just need to try harder. God never leaves us; He sets out to gather his lost sheep. This story is for anyone who is carrying shame or trauma. My journey will encourage readers to let go of control and trust in God. It will inspire readers to weigh their daily choices not by asking, "Is this a sin?" but "Does this honor and glorify God?" This is a message of encouragement to go all in with God, to live a life wholly surrendered even if it's "UNPOPULAR" by world standards. This is a reminder to lay all the striving down and take up his yoke for his burden is light.
You Don't Have to Measure Up
If you are weary from trying to be enough, this testimony will remind you that true peace, freedom, and healing are found in Christ. If you are weary of the checklists, put the pen down. If you are weary of the guides with the steps to looking like a "good Christian" come find direction from the ONLY guide you've ever needed. Step away from the lies of the world and be transformed by the truth of God's love. Come and find rest, true freedom, and restoration in Christ.
