  1. Such encouraging words this am! Thank you Holley! I was just having a conversation with my young adult daughter yesterday sharing some of these same truths as she struggles with ‘what’s next’ for her.
    This is a perfect follow-up to that conversation! ❤️

  2. Holly love what you wrote. I used think I was no good as got very little friends. I think I only wanted because I useful to people. Then this song sometime years after I got saved came to me. It “I am a new creation no more in condemnation. Here in the grace of God I stand.” That spoke to me that song that I am new creation no more in condemnation. We feel we have to learn to line up with the world to be accepted. Why I felt the way I did before I heard that song was because I tried nicely to make friends no wanted to be my friend. My two best friends to sister’s live now 84 miles away from me. I used to think I was no good. My Husband said Dawn all that matters is God expects you and God wants you and Loves you. Then I know God gave me that song for me to take it remember it when I feel like that. Thank you for what you wrote Holley it has really spoke to me. One Salvation Army officer told me to remember I am Daughter of the King of Kings that is Jesus. All these things have helped me. Love Dawn Ferguson-Little xx

  3. I can feel the Holy Spirit whispering to me through you today, Holley. Thank you for sharing such a powerful message. Enjoy your day!

  4. This sounds like such a valuable resource to fight against the lies that I am sometimes prone to believe. Thank you for giving us another opportunity to win!

  5. Those of us that have suffered through depression know the self condemnation that whispers to us.
    Thank you, Holly, for the truth you share with us today that “God loves us anyway.”

  6. What a beautiful reminder of essential truths! As imperfect people we need to hear and read about how much God loves us on a regular basis. Otherwise we can fall into despair over our sin as the enemy tries to discourage us. Jesus loves us anyway! I especially love your words on having Holy Confidence over self esteem. Thank you!

  7. Reinforcement of a word received from a women’s conference over the weekend ! We are more than enough because God is enough!

  8. Holley, I love your words and have been reading and listening to you for years. You touch lives and remind us (I share many readings with my Bible study ladies) how God loves us in our everyday lives. Such an uplift.
    Thank you & God bless

  9. I have been following you for several years and I am always uplifted and encouraged by your every word! You are so honest about who you are and I can so identify with you on so many levels! Bless you for your ministry online and in your book writing! You are a blessing to me and no doubt so many others! Please keep sharing! Have a blessed day and continued success with your writing!

  10. Dear Holley………….I loved your words today, but they are a little too close to what I am dealing with for me to leave my usual long reply. Sometimes I have what I call “Sorrow Days” where no matter how long and how often I pray to The Lord or Jesus, I still need to get the tears out and try to watch one of my Hallmark movies to hopefully cheer me a bit. I will again read your devotion tomorrow and I am sure I will have a reply. You women are exactly what I need in my life. Have a Blessed Day and my love to you,Holley…………………..Betsy Basile

  11. This really spoke to me this morning. Yesterday, I had a great morning appointment with my medical provider and a really depressing appointment with the eye specialist in the afternoon. I follow you regularly and listen to your podcasts More Than Small Talk and Prayer Starters. Something always speaks to me. Struggling with medical issues, mobility issues due to bone disease, feeling overwhelmed and inadequate, lonely but active in church, widowed, the list goes on—y’all always touch on something that hits home. Had to share an excerpt from today’s message on my Facebook to encourage others. Thanks for baring your heart and soul.

  12. I just love how realistic this is and how down to earth it applies to our everyday lives. I can’t wait to read this book.
