Because when you're being mended by the Father, it's the perfect invitation for him to seep out of all the cracks instead of all of pain, hurtful memories, and past regrets. He fills us up with His goodness, and His grace, and His love so that we can also pour out in the process of being mended... |||| Our Mended group with @hopecitychurchpdx was an absolute honor to lead. These women have hearts that have seen true, real, and deep pain - and for 8 weeks, they've opened up their lives and trusted my ears, and the ears of others to hear what has been kept in for sometime. As each lady left my home tonight, I feel an amazing peace, and assurance that God has heard us, He's seen us, and He knows us, and He won't forget about us. "Being thankful" feels like an understatement... I am just blown away at grace. 💜 #mendedgroup @angiesmith19 #vscocam #hopecitychurchpdx #liveauthentic #socalitypdx
