I hesitate to begin this blog, but I have been silent long enough. It is time I open mouth and share my heart with others. Jesus has done a marvelous work in my life. It is scary for me, but I believe Jesus wants me to share with you the reader what He has done for me. I have been on a journey of healing for the last six months. I want to share that there is nothing Jesus cannot heal. He will come to you in your broken places.
I do not claim to have all the answers, but I know Jesus makes all the difference. Let me share some of my broken places with you. I begin with my broken home. My father left my family when I was very young. My young heart came to believe that I was not important enough or worth enough for him to stay. I grew up with the false belief that I was worthless. Since I believed that lie...it affected how I lived. I thought I had to perform to earn acceptance and worth from everyone including God. What a great tormentor Worthlessness is. I was his prisoner for many, many years. I still fight him just about everyday.
Six months ago, I was so broken. Ready to die. I had no hope. I was so ensnared by the Devil's lies that I truly believed that not a soul cared for me. I finally cried out for help! God heard my cry! He came to me in my broken places. Jesus told me that He accepts and loves me! He told me I'm worth it! Worth fighting for!
So are you dear reader. You are worth it!
