To be loved... and that is really what is happening. for you to speak... I had to find a EMDR Therapist to help me uncover my stories with a guide to walk me through this journey... It was best thing I ever did and in changed from the inside out.

He enables us, with His power, His inspiration, His strength to step up and begin to do that which He has called us to do. Then He gets the glory! He doesn't always call us to tell every sordid detail of our story, just the parts that shine the light on His story…how He carried us through the trials or redeemed an utterly broken past. I always think of Beth Moore…she share her story but not all the details of her past…just enough to encourage other women that God is in the business of redeeming broken lives with His grace and great love!<br />Praying for you today dear friend. God will carry you through to the day of completion! Gay Idlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18153745029545662623noreply@blogger.com
