Dawn Barton—speaker and author of Midlife Battle
Cry—felt invisible and forgotten when she faced the unseen
challenges of midlife. After a journey of rediscovering who she was
and the potential God gave her and taking a leap of faith, Dawn
found a new love for herself and discovered there is goodness in
every season of life.
Quotes
“I'm so glad I took that initial leap of faith. A leap of faith is not without fear sometimes.” - Dawn Barton
“I just kept hearing Him say, ‘Be still, be still and rest in me.’ And I finally figured out He was calling me to be still, to reevaluate and redefine, and to look at who I was as a woman in this season, in my life, and in being still, to draw closer to Him.” - Dawn Barton
“I think we sometimes look at life and we believe that all the great things, all the great miracles from God, were on one side of it. Our babies, our careers, all the big things that we did, all the great miracles, have already happened. But the reality is it doesn't work that way. There's no midlife to God, and if we live life fully and boldly, there's just as many sweet, beautiful, miraculous blessings still to come.” - Dawn Barton
“Just when we think we're in a hard season, a down season—He's just an Ephesians 3:20 God. He’s just immeasurably more than we could ask or imagine. And that's what I think of, who could ever imagine those kinds of miracles? But that is God, right? And it's just that reminder of just how human we are, just how big He is.” - Dawn Barton
