This Fall, my friend Tanya, invited me to join some of the other ladies in our Life Group that were planning on participating in a Tuesday Night study called Unglued. It is a women’s study by Lysa TerKeurst on dealing with our raw emotions. If Tanya hadn’t invited me, I’m not sure I would have gone. I’m so glad I did. I got to be with some amazing women and was challenged in my spiritual walk. I identified that when I come unglued, I tend to stuff things down and build barriers against people who have caused hurt, and was able to deal with some very raw emotions. I learned so much from Lysa and from the ladies in my group. I understand myself a little more and can make steps toward doing things differently with God’s grace. This study, and spending time with those women was an unexpected gift of joy this year.
