Broken Crayons WILL Color Chapter 1 | Page 10: The Lie You Believe

Every wound tells a story.

But not every story tells the truth.

Pain has a way of whispering lies into the places where our hearts are most vulnerable. Over time, those whispers can become beliefs we accept without question.

"I'm not enough."

"I'll never be loved."

"I have to earn my worth."

"I'll always be broken."

"If they knew the real me, they would leave."

What begins as a wound can quietly become an identity if we're not careful.

In Chapter 1, Page 10, we explore how emotional wounds often carry hidden lies that shape our thoughts, our relationships, and the way we see ourselves. Together, we'll begin uncovering those false narratives and making room for truth to take their place.

Healing is more than recovering from what happened.

Healing is refusing to let the wound define who you are.

The pain may have introduced the lie...

But it doesn't get to write the ending of your story.

Your wounds are real.

But so is your worth.

Broken Crayons WILL Color. And so do you.

Broken Crayons WILL Color Chapter 1 | Page 9: When God Sits With You

There are moments in life when no words are enough.

No advice can fix it.
No explanation can erase it.
No timeline can rush the healing.

And yet... somehow, you're not alone.

In Chapter 1, Page 9, we reflect on the quiet, comforting presence of God—the moments when He doesn't immediately change the situation, but chooses to sit with us in it.

Sometimes we expect God to rescue us from the pain, while He is gently reminding us that He has never left our side. His presence becomes our peace. His love becomes our strength. His silence becomes reassurance that we are seen, known, and deeply loved.

Healing doesn't always happen because our circumstances change.

Sometimes healing begins because we realize we are no longer carrying them by ourselves.

When God sits with you, you discover that His presence is often the answer before the answer arrives.

You don't have to have all the words.
You don't have to have all the strength.
You don't even have to have it all figured out.

Sometimes all you need to do is make room for His presence.

Broken Crayons WILL Color. And through God's grace... so do you.

Chapter 1 | Page 8: The First Tear That Told the Truth

Sometimes, the truth arrives before we have the words to explain it.

It shows up in the tear we tried to hold back. The one that escaped before we could wipe it away, smile through it, or say, “I'm fine.”

That tear wasn't weakness.

It was honesty.

In Chapter 1, Page 8, we explore the moment when our emotions finally speak the truth we've carried in silence. The pain we've minimized. The exhaustion we've hidden. The grief we've pushed aside. The feelings we've convinced ourselves we were strong enough to ignore.

Sometimes crying is not falling apart.

Sometimes it is the first sign that we are finally allowing ourselves to feel.

The first tear may not tell the whole story, but it can open the door to the truth. It can remind us that healing does not require us to remain composed, untouched, or unbothered.

Maybe the tear wasn't betraying you.

Maybe it was finally speaking for you.

Let it fall.

Let it tell the truth.

Broken Crayons WILL Color. And so do you.
