Don’t worry. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be angry. Forgive often.
Let go of your burdens. Be thankful. Be still. Rest. Pray.
Some of these commands can feel like reprimands when we’re already struggling, but actually they are invitations - invitations to wholeness.
But how do we actually live them out when just to get through the day feels more than enough?
Taking these simple teachings as a model, my new book, Healing Life’s Wounds; Beyond Feeling Broken, explores why our minds and bodies feel as they do and looks at some very practical actions to help ease the uncomfortable sensations and overcome any mental turmoil.
Jan McFarlane, Dean of Lichfield Cathedral, writes:
Healing Life’s Wounds is an excellent book. Pat writes from lived experience and she speaks candidly, yet gently, with a deep longing for us to walk with her on the path to healing and peace.
Pat has a gift for saying profound things simply.
Oh, how our church needs that gift!
Do get a copy: I’d love to help you find healing. It’s available on my website
