This week, I faced a terrifying moment: my grand-dog’s sudden decline left me preparing for the possibility of putting him down. The emotions were heavy, the fear was real, and the trauma of past losses came rushing back. But this time, something was different. I wasn’t the same woman I was a year ago. I’ve been building resilience — and in that moment, my spiritual gifts, my faith, and even my personality wiring carried me in ways I didn’t expect. In this episode, I’m sharing: The raw story of my grand-dog’s health crisis and miraculous recovery How my spiritual gifts (Wisdom, Discernment, Faith, and Hospitality) showed up in real time Why understanding my MBTI wiring (ENFP/ENTP) helped me process the crisis differently The truth about why resilience hurts — and why it’s still worth building 💛 Takeaway: Resilience doesn’t erase the pain. It equips us to carry it differently. 📝 Journal Prompt: Think about the last time you faced a crisis. Which of your gifts, strengths, or faith practices helped you get through it? Where do you sense God inviting you to grow stronger for the next storm?
