Finding God’s Peace in Your Feelings

Our goal for this month was to play a part in removing the stigma surrounding mental health, and we pray that we have been able to do just that. No one should feel ashamed to be honest about how they’re feeling, especially when it could be a potentially dangerous feeling that requires outside assistance. As this month comes to an end, we want to bring our conversation to a close with some encouragement to find God’s peace hidden in your feelings.
