Energy Healer

Hi friend!
God has sent me a message to deliver to someone in need today.

To the Person Who’s Lost Her Sparkle,

There was so much I wanted to say, yet didn’t know how to say it without rambling.

I feel you need encouragement right now. I know that life is overwhelming and oh so hurried.

I know that you tirelessly work your fingers to the bone, often with no recognition or praise.

You silently serve others, not needing the cheer of a crowd or even your family to keep going.

I know you burn the candle at both ends, never fully getting quality sleep, just to get up and hit the ground running.

I know that you scrub toilets, cook dinner and mop floors, just to do it all again the next day.

I know that you have needs and longings of the heart that go unfulfilled because you are taking care of others.

I know that you long for freedom from your burdens, to be free from the guilt of wanting more than your situation allows.

I know you once had big dreams but now, after all this time, aren’t sure who you are or where to go.

I know you wonder if your prime has passed and what your purpose is, but it’s not too late for you.

You still matter.
You were made to sparkle.
While life has been unexpected and harsh at times, you were made to thrive, to grab a hold of each new day and live it to the fullest.

You don’t have to live defeated and you can dare to dream again.

Your path in life is not a mistake and your life has meaning, even if you don’t see it.

There is hope on your journey and in the everyday mundane.

God has placed adventure on your heart and a cry for more of life on your tongue.

You were created to live empowered by Him and to be bold in your everyday life, even in the scrubbing and in the cleaning, doing it out of thanksgiving for the life He has blessed you with.

God has put a longing for more inside of you and He created you to thirst for Him, not for things of this world.

He created you to pursue Him with a passion you can’t fully grasp, but to seek Him and have Him meet you where you are.

It’s ok to dream and to want more. Let God, the author of your life, be the author of your dreams.

Don’t be afraid to step out in faith and boldness, to change your life and become who God is challenging you to be.

Let Him set you free from the drudgery of the mundane and let Him quench your thirst.

Let Him fill you with His love so you can radiate His joy to others.

Let Him inspire you to start living again, knowing that this world is temporary and we weren’t meant to be fulfilled here.

So my friend, the one I’ve never met or someone I may know. Embrace whom God created you to be and run passionately after Him. God created you to sparkle!”

“For God, who said, ‘Let the light shine out of the darkness’, made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light if the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.”
2 Corinthians 4:6

People who thrive on drama...

The moment history becomes comfortable, it stops being history.

It becomes storytelling.

Every generation faces the same temptation.

Not to discover the past.

But to edit it.

To remove the uncomfortable chapters.

To soften the difficult truths.

To celebrate the victories while burying the mistakes.

That may protect feelings for a moment.

It does not protect the future.

The greatest lessons in history came from the moments humanity got it wrong.

Wars.

Slavery.

Colonization.

Genocide.

Religious persecution.

Scientific breakthroughs.

Civil rights movements.

None of these stories make sense if we only tell the parts that make us feel proud.

An honest historian does not write to flatter a nation, a race, or an ideology.

An honest historian follows the evidence, even when it challenges cherished beliefs.

History is not an instrument for making us comfortable.

It is a mirror.

Sometimes that mirror reflects courage.

Sometimes it exposes cruelty.

Sometimes it reminds us that ordinary people were capable of extraordinary good.

Sometimes it reminds us they were capable of extraordinary evil.

If we polish away every stain, the next generation will never understand what created it.

And people who never learn how yesterday’s mistakes happened often repeat them tomorrow.

The purpose of history is not to make us feel guilty.

Nor is it to make us feel superior.

Its purpose is to make us wiser.

Truth may be uncomfortable.

But comfort has never taught humanity what truth has.

Study history with courage.

Tell it with honesty.

Pass it on.
