trust god — Blog Admin — Unwrapping Imperfection

For Free?!

By our beautiful guest writer Tori Andrews💓 Now, before we jump in, I want to give a little disclaimer: I am not minimizing anyone’s life experiences and the hardships we all go through — some, we’re able to get up, dust off, and may come out with only a little bruise; others, are downright TRASH (Can I say that? Haha!) and we may still be reeling from the aftermath.

Taste and See

It’s hard for me to hear these few words from Psalm 34:8, without hearing the song of the same title playing in my head. My children’s choir from back in the day would have the entire church on their feet when we sang this🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

Making Peace

Becoming resolved or reconciled is how one makes peace. And quite frankly, this may include no special mention of who was right. And even less attention (as difficult as it often is) on who was wrong.

Red Flags

Hey y’all! Tori here.
I used to work as a Counselor at a domestic violence agency when I lived in Philadelphia a little over a year ago (shout out Domestic Abuse Project of DelCo (DAP)!) Being my first job after earning my Master’s Degree, I was blessed to say that I really enjoyed my job and beyond that, I loved my clients even more. I always tell my clients that I learn much more from them than they will probably ever learn from me.

Think On These Things

I’m currently reading two books and in the last week, both books have referenced Philippians 4:8. So when I sat down to write this week’s edition of Perfectly Unwrapping, it was fairly easy to narrow in on what God has been speaking to me these last few days...

Just Ask

When my children were younger, I took great pride in knowing their needs before they asked. And I don’t mean the essential needs that are necessary for survival... I’m talking about those other needs, that I could often tell they were trying to figure out exactly how to ask for.

His Strength Is Perfect

Would you agree that when we hear of someone being tired or experience feeling tired ourselves, it more times than not is considered negative? Like just-finished-a-long-day-at-work tired or feeling tired of being the one always asked to do a particular task. In these cases, it’s just weary, worn out and fed up.

Down to the Last Detail

Hey, y’all! It’s Tori taking over Unwrapping for the day! :)

While I have tried to refrain from diagnosing myself with Postpartum Anxiety (PPA) since welcoming my baby girl earlier this year, I am aware that I have found myself feeling more anxious than I ever did before bringing a little person into this world.

Inside Job

Definition of inside job: done by or with the help of someone in a position within an organization or group.

More than I care to share, I’ve found myself in situations where I wish I had responded differently. Situations that may or may not have been avoidable, but resulted in not the best version of me showing up.
