💔 Life gets heavy—but God can use your story to lift someone else. Let that be your fuel.

As Christians, we’re called to show our scars—because no one comforts like someone who’s lived it. You wouldn’t choose the pain, but God can redeem it. Let your healing help others. Be the hands and feet of Christ.
