From Running Feet to Dancing Feet: a girl who finds HOME with Jesus

Shauna Bowen is our brave guest today. She tells her story with humor and genuine love for others. I’m captivated by the concept in her story that God was always there, but completely respect when she asks why didn’t he save me?  It’s a question many have asked.  It is a question worth pursuing and though there may never be a clear answer, there is such beauty and grace when one is able to tell their story and create life with it.  When Shauna looks back through her life she can see how God provided for her and pursued her, showing her the way to being embraced by Love.  When Shauna shares how God poured true love in washing away addiction and fear, I felt like I met Him for the first time all over again.  She brought Him so close with her honest telling of how He completely breaks her free from addiction. Her journey is extremely difficult filled with so much abuse, such devastation and loss.  She shares about choosing adoption, the suicide of her parents, marriage, parenting, but ultimately restoration.  Beautiful restoration of so many broken things.

She says she was always a good runner..running from her problems, but I hope you’ll join me in seeing that she has always been running toward Love and Love crashed into her in wild pursuit. God held her close and healed her from severe wounds, showing her the way to forgive and restore.  

She opened up her heart to God and let Him make her new. Her voice radiates with love and she longs to use her life for beauty.  I hold her story so close and completely cherish it.  

She ends our segment by talking about anger over a ham sandwich and self tanner! She has me rolling!
