If you’re like me, there was a time when everything seemed to be going just fine.  Until it wasn't. I don't know what it's been for you. Maybe a divorce. Sickness. Rejection. Addiction. Abuse. Bankruptcy. Loss. Whatever it is, I know it has you asking, "Can my life ever be good again?" But what if I told you that your place of trouble is also the place where hope is found? I know it doesn't make sense but from what I've seen, it's how God does things. And that means you're not stuck – and you're not staying here. He's the One who says, "I will...transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope." (Hosea 2:15)  In His hands, things are going to be more than okay.  You are going to be more than fine.  For more on faith + emotional & spiritual wellness, visit www.UncommonValor.co

When the Holidays Hurt: Single Mom Edition

Nov 18, 2020

While we might want Thanksgiving and Christmas to be a time of joy and celebration, sometimes the holidays just hurt. The holidays are full of reminders of a life that didn't go as planned, and we may be suffering through the pain of being physically separated from our children and loved ones. Michelle shares her experience with holidays that didn't go as planned, and the comfort God revealed to her in what "should have been." She also discusses the role of shame during this season, and the freedom in accepting yourself during those times you're feeling "less-than-festive."
