Once upon a time, there was a little girl; we will call her "Queen in Transition" moving forward and that Queen is you. Her heart was heavy from carrying burdens she didn’t deserve. You didn’t know where to go or who to turn to, so you found solace with yourself. You became a comfort for yourself, your friends and family and even you own hero. And a lot of times, you felt alone, unwanted, unloved, and never enough.
But here’s the thing about this queen in transition: no matter how broken you felt on the inside, you always showed up strong on the outside. You carry yourself so well and you smiled even though your heart might be breaking, you laughed when the world felt heavy, and held it together even when everything around you was falling apart. That’s resilience, my dear, and you learned it far too early.
This little girl that you were didn’t have anyone to fight for you, so you fought your own battles. You searched for love, mostly in the wrong places. And even made choices you are not very proud of, so you bore scars; some visible, some not. There were moments when you felt so unworthy that you have wondered if the word “loved” even belonged in your vocabulary anymore.
Yet, somehow, through the pain, you always find a way to shine. Even as life threw its heaviest punches, you would always get back up, wiped her tears (or mascara and eyebrow pencil, let’s keep it real), fight back and pressed forward.
Now, this little girl is growing into a young woman. Who is finding her voice, reclaiming her power, and pulling weeds from the garden of her soul. She’s learning that all the pain, the tears, the struggles were never meant to destroy her but to refine her. Because here’s the truth: you were never abandoned, never unloved, and never unworthy.
And here’s what I want you to know today:
Healing takes time. It’s not a sprint; it’s a journey. Give yourself grace as you untangle the knots of your past.
Face your pain. It’s scary, but you can’t heal what you don’t acknowledge. Talk to someone—a counselor, a mentor, or even that friend who never runs out good advice but most especially the Holy Spirit (He is the best listener ever).
Forgive Others and Above All, Yourself. Not for them, but for you. Release the weight of bitterness so you can walk freely.
Create a better story. You are not the sum of your mistakes; you are the masterpiece God is molding.
Find strength in God. He is the ultimate healer. Matthew 11:28 says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (NIV).
Here are a few Bible Verses that can help You along the way
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” – Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
“You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you.” – Song of Solomon 4:7 (NIV)
And remember to always find a way to bring the fun out of every situation. So:
When life gives you lemon, just take that lemon and squeeze into life’s eyes; no better revenge than that.
Your past may have been messy, but if anything at all, now you have all the needed material for a bestseller or you could decide to be a stand-up comedian.
Remember, dear one, you are not broken beyond repair. God specializes in restoring shattered pieces into breathtaking artwork. You are loved beyond measure, stronger than you realize, and capable of more than you’ve ever dreamed.
With love and faith,
Someone Who Believes in You
