To anyone else tired of being told to "just pray harder" for healing 😔

I've been dealing with a chronic health issue for years. It’s exhausting, but what’s worse is well-meaning church people subtly implying that if I just had "more faith," God would fix it. It makes me feel so defective. But I was reading 2 Corinthians 12 today. The Apostle Paul—the guy who literally raised the dead—had a severe "thorn in his flesh." He begged God three different times to take it away. God’s answer? A flat "No." God told Paul, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." God didn't withhold healing because Paul lacked faith; He left the weakness there to keep Paul grounded and relying on Him. If you are carrying a burden God hasn't lifted yet, you aren't doing faith wrong. Sometimes the limp is the exact place where His grace enters. #ChronicIllness #PaulsThorn #FaithInSuffering #GraceIsEnough #ToxicTheology

Living Flat: Meredith’s Invisible Battle

Imagine going from running marathons to barely being able to sit up. That’s Meredith’s reality after a rare spinal fluid leak left her spending 95% of her days lying down. Her story is a wild ride of misdiagnoses, endless pain, and adapting to a new normal—like getting her hair done lying on a massage table and celebrating her wedding on a fainting couch. She’s sharing her journey on TikTok to raise awareness about invisible illnesses and how disability can hit anyone, anytime. #Health #BodyHealth #ChronicIllness
