What if the disappointment you’re facing is because you misunderstood what surrender really is? For years, I thought saying “yes” to God would make life easier—but instead, it brought pressure, confusion, and fear. Like the Israelites at the Red Sea, I thought I was trapped when God was actually transitioning me. In this post, I share my wilderness season, my breaking point, and the moment I discovered the art of surrender.

“I just want to be normal…” If you’ve ever whispered those words in anguish, this post is for you. I’ve been labeled with bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and more — drowning in pills and shame. But Jesus met me in the middle of my brokenness and showed me that healing is possible. This isn’t a “throw away your meds” story. It’s a testimony of freedom, wisdom, and becoming who God says you are.
