I used to think my 2026 goals—the house, the wedding, the overtime—were distractions from God. I felt like they were the things keeping me from being 'spiritual.' But what if the life I’m building is actually evidence of His goodness? Today I’m learning to see my 'to-do' list as a 'wonderful work' and narrating my life with grace instead of guilt.

We’re told that God knowing our every thought is a comfort, but to be honest? It’s scary. It’s scary because He hears the way I bully myself and the 'unfiltered' thoughts I try to hide. Today, I’m putting down the mask of the 'perfect' Christian walk and exploring the relief of being fully known and still fully loved.

Satan doesn’t need to curse me; I do a good enough job of that myself. My own voice is harsher than any critic I’ll ever face. So why am I still writing this blog? Today, I’m putting down the mask of 'getting better' and talking about the reality of the struggle."

Ever feel like you’re a servant trying to stay employed rather than a daughter sitting at the table? 😬 We often treat our worth like a variable—something that goes up when we’re "perfect" and down when we’re yelling at the ceiling. You aren’t a "fixer-upper" project; you are God’s poíēma—His masterpiece. You aren’t working toward a status; you are already "Completed" (Colossians 2:10).

I realized I wasn't actually reading the Bible; I was projecting my own low self-worth onto the page. I’d been reading through an 'Angry Boss Filter'—hearing sighs of annoyance instead of a loving voice. It was time for a Tone Check. If you feel like God is 'on your neck' while you’re trying your hardest, you might be misreading the target of His anger.
