The Good News is about seeing the good or positive in situations we face in life. Even though sometimes we feel alone, betrayed, forgotten, scrutinized, judged, ridiculed, or used in relationships, there is always an outcome at the end of every story. How your story ends is up to you. Some trials in life are short seasons, and some seem to take forever. Regardless of the circumstances you see before you, there is an answer to everything we face. As our relationship with God prospers, things tend to be less detrimental as we lean on Him. This is also my story and how it played out over the course of my life. I've had to make some tough decisions, and I got it wrong many times, but now I see how it molded me into what God intended all along. As I started to see things from that perspective, it was much easier to live without regret. I got up, brushed the dust off my big-girl pants, and began living my life in His joy and peace once I was able to let things go. As they say, "Let go and let God!" And I did just that! To the single mothers who want to quit. To the women who have deemed themselves unlovable. To the women who do it all without a man. To the women who think God doesn't hear their prayers. To the women who think they aren't doing enough. And to the men who want to understand them.
