[Ep 189] When Healing Takes Longer Than You Hoped

from Journal Gently: Healing with God through quiet reflection, honest conversations, and gentle journaling · host Kari Bartkus, Spiritual Director for Christian Women

Two trees. Same kind. Standing side by side—yet one is bare while the other is full of golden leaves. In today's quiet reflection, Kari uses this simple scene from her neighborhood to remind us that healing doesn't happen at the same pace for everyone. It's easy to look at someone else's joy and wonder why we're still struggling. But God tends to each of our hearts with patience and care, layer by layer. This episode is a gentle invitation to release comparison, trust the pace of your healing, and bring your broken pieces to the One who knows how to restore them.   >> Journal Gently Program http://lovedoesthat.org/journalgently   RELATED EPISODES: ·       Episode 117: Running Away From God: A Devotional Bible Study on Jonah 1 ·       Episode 122: Feeling Anxious?
