About This Blog

My blog shares my recovery journey from childhood abuse to living with mental illness. I've been involved in twelve step groups and therapy since 1982. I accepted Jesus as my Savior in 1988. To the best of my ability, I have followed where He wants me to go and what He wants me to do. Maybe you'll find the hope and strength you need through what I write. Maybe you want to stop hurting yourself. Maybe you have a friend who needs help and can benefit from my story. I was newly disabled when I asked God this question: "What do you want me to do with my life?" I closed my eyes and paused for a few moments to still my mind. This is what I sensed from Him: "Amy, I want you to write your story to bring hope and healing to those who are still suffering." And that's exactly what I am doing!

We Wait On Saturday

Saturday during Easter has always been a strange time for me.

Friday night my savior is crucified and fulfills the prophecy.

Sunday he is raised from the dead and seen by 5,000,  then leaves the Holy Spirit in his place.

But what about Saturday?

I was blessed to be sitting under the teaching of John Ortberg when he was on staff at our church.  Here's what he had to say about Friday, Saturday and Sunday:
