From Confusion to Clarity!

“It felt like there were a thousand voices in my head, but none of them were peace.”

That’s how Jenna, a 21-year-old college student, described her life before discovering Exhale: 31 Devotions for the Soul. Growing up in a broken home left her with deep confusion about her worth and constant shame about her past. Though she loved Jesus, her thoughts often felt clouded and chaotic, like she couldn’t tell what was true anymore.

One night, while scrolling through social media, Jenna came across Exhale. She didn’t expect much, but as she began reading, something in her heart softened.

“Each day felt like God was untangling my thoughts,” she said. “It was like layers of confusion were being lifted off, one by one.”

Through the reflections and prayers in Exhale, Jenna began to experience emotional healing she didn’t even know she needed. The devotions gave her words for wounds she had buried and pointed her to the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit. “I realized God wasn’t ashamed of my story, He wanted to heal it.”

That realization led her to take another step of faith: seeing a Christian counselor to keep walking out her healing. “I’m learning that counseling isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s a way God brings clarity and freedom,” Jenna said.

Now, when Jenna comes home for the summer, she leads a small group of teenage girls at her home church, sharing about the emotional healing she’s received and helping them find the same hope she’s found.

She still keeps Exhale by her nightstand. “I go back to it often,” she says with a smile. “Because every time I exhale, I remember, God’s peace really does quiet the noise.”
