Grieving a parent who wasn’t always there is complicated. There’s no clean narrative. No simple emotions. I loved them. I forgave them. And I still had to grieve the distance, the silence, the missing years—before I grieved the loss. Two truths can exist at the same time: You can have peace with someone and still ache for what never happened. That doesn’t make your grief invalid. It makes it honest. ⸻ #CoachingWithATwist #ComplicatedGrief #HealingJourney #GriefAwareness #EmotionalHealing

You’re Not Weak for Feeling Tired. Even Elijah Wanted It All to Stop.

Some days, it’s not sadness. It’s exhaustion. The kind that makes you think, “I can’t do this again tomorrow.” Elijah knew that feeling. After standing strong in public, after winning battles no one saw, he collapsed alone and said to God, “I’ve had enough.” Not because he lacked faith. But because he had given everything he had. God didn’t correct him. He didn’t say, “Be stronger.” He let Elijah sleep. He fed him. He stayed close. If you’re tired right now, this isn’t a spiritual failure. It’s a human one. And God meets humans gently. #Astrology #Faith #Bible #EmotionalHealing

How a calf and a cow healed each other

Watching Tamar, a young calf, find comfort with Ruthie—a cow denied motherhood for years—at Freedom Farm Sanctuary is a powerful reminder of how deeply animals feel loss and connection. Tamar’s anxious search for a mother and Ruthie’s quiet grief from losing eleven calves finally meet in a moment of healing when Tamar begins to nurse. This isn’t just about survival; it’s about trust, comfort, and emotional recovery. The sanctuary’s gentle approach lets natural bonds form, showing that real care for animals goes far beyond basic needs. What do you think about the emotional lives of farm animals? #Pets #AnimalSanctuary #EmotionalHealing

To anyone who feels bitter after praying for years

I used to call it patience. But over time, patience quietly turned into bitterness. That’s when the story of Naomi stopped feeling distant. She doesn’t hide her bitterness. She renames herself Mara. In Hebrew, the word means more than sad—it means life has turned against me. The Bible never corrects her for that honesty. It lets her bitterness speak before restoration ever arrives. If bitterness has crept into your prayers, Scripture doesn’t tell you to swallow it. It shows you someone who carried it openly—and was still part of God’s story. #Bitterness #Naomi #FaithAfterLoss #BiblicalHonesty #EmotionalHealing
