Part4

More laughter. Less shame. That’s the subtitle to this week’s section of Simply Tuesday — “Accepting Our Tuesday Soul,” and those four words speak such grace and freedom to my heart when I read them. This past weekend I was speaking at a conference and heard some incredible, real, raw stories from women.

There were beautiful “me, too” moments through their bravery, but what I loved most? It was the laughter. It was the moments where we sat and connected over the real, the funny, the embarrassing. I traveled home with a soul refilled and ready to pour out because of women who infused joy and laughter into our conversations — not shame or comparison.

Maybe this week you feel like you’re trying to find your way out of the fog. Or you’re living on the corner of desire and disappointment. Or maybe, like me, you’d love to learn a few more ways to cultivate a light heart. You are in the right place, because Emily covers all of those — and more — in this week’s reading.

Discuss

Q1. On page 170, Emily writes, “I’m thankful that Jesus gives me space to fumble through the silence and I’m learning He meets me here in ways I would never expect.” How have you learned to embrace the fog — the unclear moments of life — and learn in the silence?

Q2. On page 180, Emily says “Desire and disappointment often keep company with one another on the bench.” How have you experienced this recently?

Q3. Share something you highlighted as you read through (or your own celebrity sighting story!) — we love hearing what you’re loving!

Continue the conversation over in our Facebook group!
