This is a story about hope, grief, and faith. This video is about praising God earnestly — not out of a sense of duty or obligation — in the dark valleys of my life.


I had vilified my mind — do you make FEELINGS wrong? (READ👇)


We are called to love God with our minds — to know Him, to seek Him.


And to bring to Him every emotion that we feel. No emotion is too bad for God.


Job brings grief, despair, and anguish. Elijah brings exhaustion. I brought to God confusion.


He can handle your anger. In fact, when you keep anger from Him, it just comes up in other ways AND corrodes your own heart, your own ability to connect to Him (and to others) fully.


How can you love God with your whole heart while pieces of your heart are hidden inside prisons of shame?


There is a wrong way to express our feelings. When we lash out, blame, hate, yell, hit — and all of these harmful expressions of emotion result directly from keeping them from God.


He loves you BECAUSE you bring Him all of you, not in spite of your pain, anguish, or anger.


He DELIGHTS in all of you.


What are you bringing Him today?
