Overcome

Rising Up After Being Knocked Down

Our lives can get knocked down by job loss, friendship breakups, parenting struggles, health diagnoses, depression, drama, financial struggles, the daily grind and so much more. And it’s often in the moments that we need to overcome hardship, sickness, doubt, fear, tragedy, and obstacles that we start to believe we don’t have what it takes to rise up after getting knocked down. We start believing lies. We self condemn. We become sure that all our worst fears will become our reality. We swim in self doubt and God doubt. And here at Collide, we want to help you do battle with everything that keeps you from rising up. We want to strengthen you, inspire you and remind you of your truth and your worth. You girl, can get back up, no matter what knocks you down. Grab hold of the resources we have crafted just for you…
