You all made me weep yesterday, big tears of heartbreak and gratitude. I asked for scripture and you showed up like a boss. I clung to your verses, your prayers, you kind thoughts, quotes, and encouragement yesterday. I needed them. Every single comment was read multiple times.

I have avoided this post for a long time. If talking about female anatomy makes you uncomfortable, I invite you not to read this post. I want to be sensitive not to offend, but I feel compelled to tell the true story of this part of my treatment and recovery.

Author and speaker Ruthie Delk came to Village 7 last Monday evening to speak to the women. Her words were a much needed reminder of grace. Ruthie is kind, transparent, and very honest about living in hard-living in the tension of today. Her book Craving Grace is a study on the understanding of the simplicity and complexity of grace. If understanding grace is something you struggle with, I would highly recommend her book for study. Goodness—I would recommend this book even if you don’t struggle understanding. Ruthie has been given a gift in her understanding of grace.
