The Courage To Be Seen

"Where He leads Joy Follows" -Joy Butts

There’s a hidden side to our humanity that rarely sees the light. It’s the part of us that trembles in the dark, long after the makeup is removed and the world has stopped watching.  We smile, we show up, we push forward—but deep down, many of us are afraid that if we slow down, people might see who we really are: vulnerable, scared, unsure. But here’s the truth…

You are not alone.

This is not just a story. It is an invitation—to strip away the masks, to lean into the pain, and to walk boldly into healing. Choose transparency over perfection. Vulnerability over silence. Truth over appearances. Together, let us draw strength from community, find hope in the pause, and uncover purpose in the places we least expected.

Stay connected. Be encouraged. And remember—you are seen, loved, and never alone.

With Heart,

Joy Butts
