How to Live a Life of Purpose
The Best Kept Secret exists to help women identify the secret to healing their hearts and connecting with others despite their past. Here, you’ll find engaging conversations and important questions that help us connect to the body of Christ despite what the culture believes to be true.
This season, we are learning how the enemy misleads church girls and to what lengths the Lord goes to restore our faith in Him.
Today, we’re reflecting on 1 Corinthians 12:8-10 NIV:
8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Meet Mariela
Deeply wounded as a child, Mariela Rosario grew up with pain that seemed too profound to heal. She fell into toxic habits of drug use, people-pleasing, and shame. Then, alone in her house in 2015, Mariela experienced a miraculous encounter with God that prompted her to turn away from those destructive patterns and begin attending church. As her relationship with Jesus deepened, she launched a ministry to help other women overcome their past hurts so that they, too, could walk in freedom and joy. Because when a woman’s God-given purpose is activated, she speaks fire.
