The Infinity Project

real talk, they’re the duo that saved my life.

I don’t even know how to word this. I’m just so in awe. The move, the journey, the hurt, the faith. All of which to land me exactly where I’m supposed to be. The safest place I’ve ever called home. The most authentic, loving people who have taught me what acceptance really means. To find a place where your darkness isn’t shunned, but rather understood, and at times even encouraged. Where the people here don’t say “you’re broken, go get help”, they say “you’re broken, come be broken with me & we’ll do this together.” I can’t tell you enough how Black Diamond has changed my life, and I can’t tell you how exhausted I was when I got here. Not just physically, but on all fronts. Especially mentally. But what the Lord has done through this place, and this journey I’ve been on for the past 3 years is nothing short of incredible. And my prayer is that I never take it for granted, because if the Lord can heal me this much in a year, imagine what He can do in the next 30. Each step of your life is so planned the Lord has lived it since the beginning of time. So don’t get discouraged, don’t lose hope, and most importantly don’t lose the opportunity to allow your journey to heal you. Because as hopeless as you are now, the Lord WILL bring you out of it if you just trust the journey even when you don’t understand. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned through this, it’s that He wants us to speak up and be vulnerable. Others need to know of our stories and of our sufferings so they know they’re not alone. And most importantly, never be ashamed of your darkness. you CAN have Jesus and a therapist too. In fact, that’s just the duo that saved my life.
