On 8:36am 12 years ago I became a mommy. In 12 years we have grown together, and apart and together again. This girl has challenged me to my core, she makes me want to be a better person, a better Jesus follower, a better friend, and a better mother. She is both the best parts of me and the tough parts of me. She is witty and wise beyond her years. And I am so lucky God chose me to be her mama! Happy birthday Lily!!! I love you deeper than the universe. #universe #love #motherhood #birthday #faith #god #bentnotbroken #swfl https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/BvOsC4Xlu2t/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13oqucnrrgpns

It’s Brady and Lily’s 12th birthday tomorrow - and while we can’t celebrate with Brady we are thinking of him and wishing him the best birthday ever. Daddy and Jenn miss you so much buddy. But this post is more about that man frosting cupcakes at 9pm to make sure the kids each had enough for their classes. (60 cupcakes in total). That man was sick. He was working himself to the bone trying to make ends meet and always falling short. He woke up for midnight cry sessions with our infant and went to work at 5am in the freezing cold. He dealt with driving all over the state of Connecticut multiple times during the week to ensure he had time with his children. That man was wresting with so much, he was tired, he was in pain, but he kept going. I am so thankful that today, even though tragedy has occurred and we miss those babies so much, that even through all that - that man is happier, healthier, in a job he LOVES and that loves him back, is proud of who he is, and can face any challenge that comes our way and defeat it no problem. I am so proud to call that man my husband. In the (almost) 5 years we have been married we have always known struggle, but thanks be to God that we are seeing a horizon. And I have full faith we will see those children again soon. So here’s to hopefully the last birthday Brady will have to spend without his daddy. I feel big things coming. 💕 #husband #wife #hardworkingman #married #kids #custodybattle #bentnotbroken #addiction #prayworks #relationshipgoals #recovery #wedorecover #bentnotbroken #swfl https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/BvMTqzFlEuw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=s2qydd4bvx30

When I was a baby Christian I remember an elder citing this verse when I was crying out because of all the struggles we were going through. I remember thinking she was crazy, and I wasn’t fully on board with this believing stuff. I had a difficult time grasping that there was a God who loved me and wanted the best for me. All I had ever been through were hard times, how could an all-loving God allow me to endure so much pain? This elder told me to walk boldly in the faith and to trust even though I didn’t understand. She told me that God does not waste one wound, and the struggles I was enduring would be blessings in His timing. Fast forward 3 years later and I can honestly tell you that every struggle we have endured has produced small miracles and small blessings all around us. I feel most connected to God now when I am enduring something hard because I know He is growing me, molding me, and has a major plan for my life trajectory. I no longer wish for my struggles to end, I only pray to keep myself in line with Christ while enduring them. If you find yourself in a difficult situation or season remember God is not “allowing” you to be hurt; you have free will you can change your situation. But He is helping you see what you are made of and weeding out what isn’t meant for you. #faith #blessings #trust #God #jesus #struggle #addiction #addictionrecovery #wedorecover #sober #mentalhealth #abuse #ptsd #traumasurvivor #depression #anxiety #prayworks #pray #recoverywarrior #votd #scripture #thursday https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/Bu_73KfF5SP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pjdu7wozw5zj

That big girl standing there, she is an answered prayer. She is 11. And in her 11 (almost 12) years she has had a roller coaster of a little life. Partly because of addiction, partly because of my mismanaged mental health, and partly because of a complete lack of support from any of my family. I have cried, begged and pleaded with God to just let her experience joy. She always has such a high anxiety and is full of angst because of the numerous disappointments in her life. Now that my life is stable, hers has still been upside down waiting for the bottom to fall out. And it doesn’t matter how much I tell her we are safe now, she hasn’t felt that yet. So I was left to surrender her to God and pray He opens her heart to feel joy, and happiness and not be so sad all the time. I was desperate to break a generational curse, and I saw her going down the same dark path I once traveled and I so badly wanted to save her. But I knew in my heart God loves her more than I could and He would save her. This past month has been such a beautiful experience for us all. She has opened her heart and let me in. She talks to me about deep stuff, and she is letting herself feel loved and love back. She is slowly learning to trust God and the process, and she is finally HAPPY. I’m thankful for the Spirit in guiding me in how to help her. And I am so thankful to God for letting this little girl be little and have joy like a child. She is a true answered prayer and as her mama I couldn’t be more elated for these changes. #changes #tween #daughter #sisters #answeredprayers #prayerworks #pray #god #faith #addiction #addictionrecovery #bentnotbroken #faithoverfear #believe #trust #family #saved #generationalcursebreaker #breakthechains #freedom #jesussaves (at Four Mile Cove Eco Park) https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/BuO9PUxlB0i/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7dzm99kvjek5

My favorite part about us is our transparency. We aren’t afraid to show our struggles or share our pain. We don’t pretend to have it all together, and we aren’t afraid to bear our crosses. But my favorite thing about you @mugziefab is the Jesus I see in you. You are always the first one to tell me to bring it God. You have an unshakable faith that always just knows we are going to be okay. Your faith makes mine stronger. Every bump in the road we have encountered has only led us to more stable ground. We go through it all hand in hand with God at our center. I never knew the power of having a praying partner or husband and now I do with you. I’m so thankful for you every day. I’m thankful for our pain, because it has made us that much more filled with joy. I’m thankful for our struggles because they always teach us a new lesson when we let God lead the way. I’m thankful for our pasts because they’ve made us appreciate the NOW. I’m thankful for being able to accept your love and to receive this love you give me so pure and beautiful. I love talking about Jesus with you and I love how the way you love mirrors His. I am so thankful for your sacrifices and selfless nature that just pours over me. The way you love me brings me to tears of gratefulness and awe that I get to do life with you. Happy Valentine’s Day, but every day just thank you for your love. #love #husband #husbandandwife #godfirst #prayinghusband #prayingwife #faith #godisourcenter #prayfirst #unshakablefaith #strength #bentnotbroken #wedorecover #recovery #thankful #grateful https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/Bt3lb8Gl5kW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2ca6zav5zq71

So last night I receive this email from Lily’s school. I had many mixed emotions reading it. This is the first threat of a school shooting that was imposed on one of my children’s schools. This is the first time it has affected our family. I struggled with what to do today. I don’t want to give in to fear, and I want to trust God fully. But I also believe that God gives us a spirit or wisdom and discernment for situations such as these. I decided to keep her home today, and the threat was unsubstantiated and the case is closed now, but know I’m left thinking what about the next time? I fully trust God is in control but we need to start praying harder for the kids who feel they need to shoot their peers, we need to pray harder for hedges of protection over our children when they are in school, and we need to pray for wisdom in this generation of children. We shouldn’t have to be scared to send our kids to school in America but unfortunately that is rapidly becoming a reality. Parents talk to your kids, pray with your kids, and bring Jesus into your house and hearts 💕 #bringjesusback #jesusinthehome #pray #prayforouryouth #schoolshootings #america #endschoolviolence #startswithgod #bentnotbroken #mother #daughter #middleschool #capecoral #charterschool #sad #faithoverfear #prayforourkids #prayforthefuture #prayersforamerica #prayers #powerful #believe #wisdom #faith https://www.instagram.com/bentnotbrokenministry/p/Bt1cvomlIXs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14row6fkt4btc
