I was the girl sitting on the sidelines.

 

I was the teenager accepting the loss of all my dreams to be a wife, mother, and author.

 

I was the girl looking in the mirror with a single tear slipping down my face, wondering how I could look so normal when everything inside me was screaming in agony.

 

I was lonely, purposeless, hopeless and . . . tired. Tired of being sick. Tired of flaring. Tired of getting my hopes up. Tired of shame.

 

And I know I’m not the only one. Maybe that was you—or is you now. That’s why I started writing. That’s why I started the Diamonds conference.

 

The online Diamonds conference is just a bunch of chronically ill Christians coming alonside you to share the hope we’ve fought for and most of all to tell you you’re not alone. You’re not crazy. You’re seen. You’re even understood—because we’re in the trenches with you.

 

Our next event is in FIVE DAYS, and I hope you can join us.
