Economic Abuse: The Hidden Crisis No One Talks About

Imagine your ex leaving you with nothing but debt, no support, and kids to care for. That’s what happened to Becky, and she’s not alone—nearly 4 million kids are affected by economic abuse in the UK. From stolen pocket money to unpaid child support, this kind of control devastates families. It’s a national emergency, and so many are suffering in silence. If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone—help is out there. #Relationships #EconomicAbuse #MentalHealth

From Control to Surrender Anxiety often grows out of our desire to control what we cannot. We replay conversations, plan out every possible outcome, and grasp for certainty. But the more we try to hold everything together, the more anxious we feel. Control promises relief but delivers exhaustion. Surrender is the opposite. It is not giving up. It is giving over. Proverbs tells us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts, not lean on our own understanding, and submit to Him so that He makes the path clear (Proverbs 3:5–6). The psalmist reminds us that God bears our burdens daily (Psalm 68:19). Every morning, every situation, He is strong enough to carry what weighs us down. Peter echoes this truth, calling us to humility and inviting us to cast our cares on God because He truly cares for us (1 Peter 5:7). Control keeps us anxious. Surrender sets us free. Prayer: Lord, I confess that I often try to control what only You can handle. Teach me to surrender my cares to You in trust. Remind me that Your hands are stronger than mine and that You bear my burdens daily. Daily Challenge: Think of one situation you have been trying to control. Today, pray over it and verbally surrender it to God, saying: “Lord, I trust you. This belongs to You.”

Father kills son with autism, 10, family dog and self in apparent murder-suicide in home where missing daughter, 20, was also found dead

A tragic murder-suicide unfolded in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, where police say 58-year-old Rodney Shippy fatally shot his 10-year-old autistic son, Logan, and the family dog before turning the gun on himself. Authorities discovered the bodies Wednesday afternoon while conducting a welfare check after relatives reported Shippy’s daughter, Alyssa, missing. The 20-year-old’s body was later found inside the disheveled home, and investigators are working to determine her cause of death. The deaths mark the latest in a series of devastating losses for the Shippy family. In 2022, Rodney’s wife Lisa, 41, took her own life at the same residence. Just months later, Lisa’s mother was murdered by her husband in a separate incident nearby. Relatives said Rodney became increasingly isolated after his wife’s death, and the home had fallen into severe neglect. Public records show he was facing foreclosure on the property, owing $135,000 in unpaid mortgage debt. Loved ones described Logan as a “sweet, eager-to-learn boy” and Alyssa as “a bright light in this world.” A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to help cover their funeral expenses. #UnexpectedHistory #UnexpectedResults #Creepy

HIV Cure Closer Than We Thought?!

A man is officially HIV-free after a stem cell transplant—without even needing HIV-resistant cells! This totally changes what scientists thought was needed for a cure. But just as the science is leveling up, millions are losing access to lifesaving meds and prevention because of huge cuts to global health funding. The breakthroughs are real, but the fight’s far from over. Could we see an HIV cure in our lifetime? The hope is real, but the struggle is too. #Health #BodyHealth #HIVCure

Inspiration We have a natural and spiritual body; sewn together by our Creator. We protect our entire body as a temple by renewing our physical and mental health. We rest when tired, eat appropriately, and maintain our diets for physical strength. We must pray, study Scripture and open our hearts to the Holy Spirit for mental growth and spiritual renewal. We cherish the human form God has created and will continue to maintain our health, so we continue to complete good works in His name. Prayer Dear God, We are thankful for the beautiful human form You created for us. Teach us how to maintain our physical and spiritual strength so we may continue to live according to Your will. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Dave Coulier’s Double Cancer Shock

Full House’s Dave Coulier just dropped a bombshell—he’s facing a second cancer diagnosis less than a year after beating stage-3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This time, it’s an HPV-related tongue cancer, totally unrelated to his first. The wild part? He had zero symptoms; a routine scan caught it early. Dave’s staying positive, though, with a 90% curability rate and radiation wrapping up by New Year’s Eve. Talk about a rollercoaster year! #Health #BodyHealth #DaveCoulier

The silent loss of muscle no one warns you about

From 40 onward, women lose about 1% of muscle mass per year — and that loss speeds up after menopause. This isn’t vanity; muscle is your metabolic currency. Less muscle means less energy, slower recovery, and more injury. Strength training twice a week — even light weights — protects bones, joints, and confidence. Aging gracefully isn’t soft; it’s strong. #Health #Fitness #WomenWellness

At-Home Cervical Cancer Tests Are Here!

Big news: you can now screen for cervical cancer at home! The American Cancer Society just updated their guidelines to say self-collected vaginal swabs (like the Teal Wand) are officially okay for HPV testing. Clinician-collected samples are still preferred, but this move could make screening way more accessible—especially for folks in rural areas. Remember: start screening at 25, and keep it up every 3-5 years until 65. This could seriously help close the gap in cancer care! #Health #BodyHealth #CervicalCancer
