Hey Friend! 

Today’s topic was inspired by a phone call from a retreat coordinator who wanted me to speak on confession, of all things–confession! I nearly dropped the phone when I heard her request. I knew a message on confession would either provide the backdrop of a mighty move of God or be the most awkward moment of my speaking career.

Confession is probably one of the most misunderstood spiritual habits among Christians and, simultaneously, one of the most critical spiritual habits we can cultivate. Confession can set us free and help us grow in areas we’ve been stuck in for years. Honestly, I’ve come to love it. After today’s episode, I think you will, too. 

xo,

Donna

A Prayer for Resurrection in the Areas I Thought Were Dead - Your Daily Prayer - April 2

Just as Jesus rose from the grave, God can breathe life into the areas of our lives that feel buried. No matter how devastating the loss, when we seek Him in our disappointment and pain, we will begin to see dry bones stir.
