Welcome to Family Secrets. So many of us live with secrets that haunt us, keep us awake at night, or noodle their way into our lives. Some secrets are funny (think: embarrassing moments). Some are tragic. But many hold us captive. In Daisy Chain, many characters harbor secrets, but only a few are brave enough to bring them to the light of day and find freedom and hope. That's why I created this site—to give you a safe place to air a secret anonymously. It’s my way to help you turn your trial to triumph. If you'd like to do that, click the “Tell Your Secret” link now. All secrets are kept anonymous, and will be posted with discretion (Please temper graphic secrets). It’s my desire that this blog will become a community for many, and that thousands of folks will experience freedom when they’ve shared their family secret. Because the truth is, despite the darkness, there is hope.
Thank you Mary.
Thank you for writing Thin Places.
Thank you for writing words that heal…first you, now me.
Thank you for having the courage to allow Jesus to lead you to, and through, those thin, sometimes still bleeding places in your heart to your healing.
Thank you for having the courage to share them with me.
Thank you for not preaching at me, but just being with me while I read.
Thank you for the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon your words, which help me to recognize and want to experience my own thin places—with Jesus.
Thank you for the fact that I have not even finished the book yet, and already I am changed.
Thank you for the things I cannot yet put into words for the ways God is using your book, and you, to heal, encourage, strengthen, and equip me for the work He desires to do in my life. You will never know how perfect the timing, or how powerful the voice that speaks to me tonight from every precious black-inked page.
To me, they are red. Every story, every thin place, revealing the redemption found only in the shed blood of Jesus. He died for you and He died for me. No brand name jeans, no recognition from another, no coveted possession or position remains with us at the foot of the cross.
Thank you Mary, because that’s where I find myself tonight, and there’s no place in life I’d rather be.
