"He told me all that I ever did." - the Samaritan woman in John 4:39
Yes, life is messy and integration of Jesus and faith with life often doesn’t look like what we thought it was “supposed” to or think it "should" look like. Are we shocked? We are literally told by Jesus that this life is full of trials. Yet we as we show up we can heal and grow in ALL God promises. He has after all, overcome. We can too.
He saved me. I can’t say it more clearly than that. Yes, Jesus has proven to me to be the ultimate answer. Has it been easy? No. It’s been 25 years of a winding road that he has made straight. As I continue to walk it out, I can’t help but testify - and to talk with others in their own unique places on the discipleship road. How amazing.
“Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21

Better Together? Really? Often Feels More Like Risky and Uncomfortable!
To achieve TRUE satisfaction and intimacy, we need to be TOGETHER - first with God and then with others. From the garden, God modeled togetherness with Jesus and the Spirit and created us to be together with one another. It is not good for us to be alone! How can we press into the more? How can we walk in the agape love that is ours in Christ with one another? It's possible as we walk by the Spirit and receive what Jesus has for us as we abide.
