God Works Outside the Box with Julieanne Bartlett of Passion of Hope

“Maybe God doesn’t have anybody for you or God has called you to be single."

These were the types of heartbreaking responses Julieanne Bartlett heard from loved ones when she was struggling with prolonged singleness.

Yet, Julieanne knew God was calling her to the Vocation of marriage and discovered she needed to let God work outside the box for her—nothing was going to go the “perfect way” or “the perfect Catholic way.”

Julieanne chose to put herself out there in spite of her fear of rejection, especially in regards to her weight (she had always struggled with this).  She was willing to face rejection, because Julieanne wanted marriage more than she wanted to protect herself.

Julieanne's greatest hope came true and she met and married her husband at 42. Julieanne continues to experience God's profound healing and hope within her marriage. 

We have to stay open to the way that God may get us to our dreams.
