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!

When God Says, "Trust Me."

Trust, take a risk and put your faith in Me.
Trust, take a risk and ask Me for help.
Trust, take a risk and bring to My throne all your doubts and fears.
Trust, you will see that I AM who I say I AM.

Trust Me, for I will provide you all your needs.
Trust Me, for I can see into the future what you cannot see.
Trust Me, for I am a faithful God to those who know Me.
Trust Me, for you are My precious child.

Trust In Me, wisdom about your situation exceeds your understanding.
Trust In Me, My plans for you are filled with all the desires of your heart.
Trust In Me, even in generations past, I guided my people with words, fire, clouds and silence.
Trust In Me, I will not hurt you.

Trust Only In Me, for the things of the earth will one day disappear.
Trust Only In Me, for many will deceive you and destroy you.
Trust Only In Me, for I alone created the heavens and the earth.
Trust Only In Me, I am a jealous God.
