Lately, there’s been this strong sense of change in the air. You can feel it, right? There’s a deep stirring within hearts everywhere. Are you part of this stirring?

We’re living in chaotic times, and it can feel overwhelming. But within all this turbulence, there’s a call to prepare, to be vigilant, and to embrace the changes happening around us. This isn’t a time for fear but for hearing and following Jesus invitation towards living life to its full.

Hebrews 12:1 encourages us to let go of every wound and sin that holds us back. Trauma, whether from painful events or unmet needs, leaves a mark on our soul. These wounds can impact our mental, physical, and spiritual health. When left unhealed, they can lead to stress, burnout, and even illness, taking us away from the assignments God has for us.

Romans 8:28 reassures us that God works everything for good for those who love Him. This verse reminds us that our unhealed wounds can hold us back, not just individually but as a community. The trauma we carry can affect our ability to fulfill the global mission to prepare for the return of Christ.

Shame, often rooted in trauma, is a tool the enemy uses to derail us. It’s like carrying a heavy weight that drags us down, making us feel unworthy and disconnected. But Romans 8 offers hope, reminding us that there’s no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. We are children of God, co-heirs with Christ, and called to share in His glory. This truth guides us out of the darkness of shame and into the freedom of God’s love and purpose.

Each of us has a role in God’s mission. There’s no retirement in following Jesus—our assignments may change, but they remain crucial. Whether you’re just starting your walk with God or are deep into your journey, you have a purpose. Your experiences, struggles, and victories are all part of God’s bigger plan.

So, let’s embrace the stirring, heal our wounds, and step boldly into our God-given assignments. What’s your next stride in this race? Remember, you’re not alone. We’re here to support you, offering various ministries and resources for your healing journey. Together, we can encourage and uplift each other, growing stronger in our faith.

Living broken and given, just as Jesus did, is our calling. It’s through our brokenness that God’s light shines the brightest. Embrace the stirring within you and discover the purpose you were meant to fulfill. Each step we take in faith, each wound we allow God to heal, brings us closer to His vision for our lives and the world.

As we stand together, let’s remember that we are not just individuals on separate journeys but a community woven together by God’s love and purpose. Let’s support one another, share our stories, and walk this path hand in hand. The stirring we feel is a call to action, a call to deeper faith, and a call to live out our purpose with courage and compassion.

Embrace this stirring. Heal, grow, and step into the fullness of God’s plan for your life. You are part of something bigger, and your journey is a vital piece of God’s grand design.
