Marriage Mending

God is referred to many times as the Master Potter...the molder and shaper of our lives. Few of us have trouble with the idea of GOD shaping and remolding us as individuals, but how often do we think of GOD remolding us as a couple? After all, if man and wife are "one flesh," wouldn't it stand to reason that God shapes marriage relationships too? Perhaps this is what God is doing in your life, but you haven't realized it. The changes that occur in a process like this can make you very uncomfortable, therefore, sleep may have eluded you as you've searched for answers to your pain.
Great emotional upheavals can take place when children are born or leave home, when finances are altered or jobs lost. A husband can become upset when his wife starts a career, and a wife can be...beside herself during her husband's "mid-life crisis." But, as painful as these things are, they're all part of God shaping and molding us...not only as individuals, but as man and wife! As Jeremiah described, "I went down to the potter's house and I saw him working at the wheel. But, the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him" (Jeremiah 18:3-4, NIV). There's the key: "shaping it as seemed best to him." Know that whatever is happening in your marriage - whatever attack of the enemy or even the results of your own mistakes you may be facing - GOD can reshape and remold both of you into a relationship that will be a true glory...shaping it as GOD sees best!

Life is too short to spend it at war with yourself. Constantly beating yourself up over every little thing won’t magically make life better. It’s time to stop the negative self-talk. It’s holding you back. What happened, happened. You can’t change the past, and no amount of self-hatred can fix it. Today is a new beginning. Choose to move forward. You are not a bad person, not a failure, and certainly not a disappointment. You are human, and that means you are constantly learning and growing. What you can change is your future. Remember, your pain will become your strength. It won't last forever. Give yourself time to heal, and take life one day at a time. Every day you make it through is another step closer to the greatness that’s waiting for you. Be patient with yourself. Growth doesn’t happen overnight, and it comes in many forms. Be proud of how far you’ve come, and trust that you are getting closer to the person you are meant to be. Keep pushing forward, keep fighti

Exploring the Spiritual Significance of Shadow Work

In our journey toward self-discovery and spiritual elevation, shadow work stands out as a profound practice that fosters deep personal and spiritual growth.  Often misunderstood or overlooked, shadow work integrates the hidden parts of ourselves, promoting healing and transformation. But what exactly is shadow work, and why is it spiritually significant? Understanding Shadow Work... Shadow work, a concept pioneered by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, involves the exploration of the unconscious parts of our personality that we typically repress or deny. These are aspects of ourselves that we might find uncomfortable, shameful, or unacceptable, which Jung described as the "shadow." Engaging in shadow work is about acknowledging and embracing these aspects, rather than allowing them to manifest in destructive ways. This process requires honesty, introspection, and a willingness to face parts of ourselves that we might prefer to ignore. The Spiritual Significance of Shadow Work... 1
