Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “How did I get here?”
It’s easy to get stuck—stuck in a relationship that drains you, stuck in fear, stuck in a pattern where you feel like you have no say in your own story. Over time, we let others control our lives. We begin to believe the lie that we’re helpless. And without even realizing it, we become a victim of our own life.
But friend, you don’t have to live that way.
God created you to be whole. He created you to live in relationship with Him—but not in pieces, not hidden in shame, not lost in someone else’s expectations. He wants you to be happy, healthy, and deeply loved.
Yes, maybe something happened in your life that wasn’t your fault. But here’s the hard truth—with grace and love: healing is still your responsibility.
It’s your choice to close that chapter, to stop rereading the pain, and to create space for something new.
And if you’re thinking, “Thanks, Sam... easier said than done,” you’re right. I know it’s not easy.
I know it can feel terrifying and lonely.
But you have a choice—you can stay stuck, or you can start stepping forward.
Here are 3 small steps to help you take back your life:
Acknowledge what’s keeping you stuck. Name it. Own it. No shame.
Ask God for courage. Just for today. You don’t need the full plan—just the first step.
Choose one action that supports your healing—journaling, setting a boundary, or reaching out for support.
You’re stronger than you feel right now. And you’re not alone. It’s time to take your life back—one brave step at a time. 💜
