Hey sis, I want to suggest you go one step further like I did. Write out the lies and on another sheet write the Truths that counteract the lies. Then light the sheet of lies, and in your wooden box place all the Truths to pull out and read when you need that extra burst of Truth.

Don't let the enemy take over sis, you've got to fight through this to the end. You deserve the healing, and don't let anyone tell ya different.

luv ya

Thank you all for your prayers.
Gods been doing some wonderful things in me.

This morning I began asking Jesus to heal this inner portion of me.
I saw him standing over me (spiritual eyes, not with physical eyes) as he was drawing out white flakes from me. Not pure white. Looked more like dried flakes of skin.

Went to church and was praying silently during worship. Felt as if he was pouring an oil over my head. Then I saw black birds dropping seeds and they were landing in my mind. Jesus took a wooden scoop and began to scoop the seeds out of my mind. I felt so weak I thought I would fall down.

Some stuff that's really been stuck, He has given me encouraging words to help me past them. Some are still suck. But I'm willing, if he's willing, in his time, in his way, to allow him to heal those. Can he do it? Yes, my God can move mountains.

I share with you so you know, which you already do, that I'm healing, he is with me, he is drawing out the sin and scooping out the seeds planted by the enemy.

The last couple days were really ruff. Mostly self induced. Nothing like sitting down on the job and having a pitty party.

God is so good. He is faithful. He loves us (me) so much that he didn't leave me even when I rejected his words. He continued calling me and encouraging me even when I was ready to give up on everything.

Thank you all for your prayers, words of encouragement, and truth. I do feel the prayers. I apologize for my down fall. I know we are the body and when one portion falls the others are effected. I still am surprised that others hurt when I do.

[mlg]

And it's so good to see you getting up and returning to the race. Yes you are healing, yes you are moving forward. One step at a time. Yes we hurt when you hurt, but it's because we love you and are praying for you.

I think we are all prone to pity parties every now and again, but the more we grow closer to God the fewer we will have. We will just keep on keeping on.

luv ya sis

I was listening to a pastor today and wow......the message reminded me of you, sis....and all who have been abused. This pastor said..and i cant quote him word for word, but he said something along these lines....God knew you before you were born. He ordained you. He didnt make a mistake when He breathed life into you. He knew what family you were going to grow up in and the circumstances you would be surrounded with. He blessed you and what He has blessed cannot be cursed. What God blesses cannot be cursed. The enemy knew, as he knows of all God's created, that you would be a danger to his message to the world, so he started attacking with all the lies you were told as a child to wear down and beat up that which God had blessed to cause you to be drawn away from the truth of God's blessings, truth, love and will for your life. You came into the world through your parents..but, you were made by God, and given life by the breath of God. Sanctified through the blood of Christ, new in Him.

I cried when i heard this cuz it is all so true. I know for myself, after abuse, i couldnt see who I was in Christ. I saw who the abusers told me i was. Truth is, we didnt come FROM them, we came THROUGH them, we came FROM the will of God and only have breath because He wanted it to be so and breathed it in to us, knowing what He was going to do in and through the lives of those He created. I hope this speaks to you sis as much as it did to me.

I love you sis, and am with you every step of the way in this. Dont give up. He is your healing.

love in Jesus,
momo

mlg and momof3 thank you.
Your words were soothing.

Woke up with this song in my head.

Casting Crowns : East To West

Here I am Lord,
And I'm drowning
In your sea of forgetfulness
The chains of yesterday surround me
I yearn for peace and rest
I don't want to end up where you found me
And it echoes in my mind,
Keeps me awake tonight

I know you cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
And I stand before you now as,
As though I've never sinned
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
From you leaving me this way

Jesus can you show me
Just how far the east is from the west
Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
Rising up in me again
In the arms of your mercy I find rest,
Cause you know just how far the East is from the West
From one scarred hand to the other.


I start the day the war begins
Endless reminding of my sin
And time and time again your truth is drowned out
By the storm I'm in
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away,
From you leaving me this way


Jesus can you show me,
Just how far the East is from the West
Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
Come rising up in me again
In the arms of your mercy I find rest
'cause you know
Just how far the East is from the West
From one scarred hand to the other.


I know you've washed me white,
Turned my darkness into light
I need your peace to get me through,
To get me through this night
Can't live by what I feel
But by the Truth your work reveals,
I'm not holding on to you
But you're holding on to me,
You're holding on to me

Jesus you know
Just how far the East is from the West
I don't have to see the man I've been,
Come rising up in me again
In the arms of your mercy I find rest
'cause you know just how far the East is form the West,
From one scarred hand to the other.

Just how far
The east is from the west


From one scarred hand to the other

Psalm 103:12

While you patiently endure the time it takes to be free of your problem, God is gradually and patiently strengthening your love and trust in Him. You don't want to rush that. No more than you would want to rush into any other long term relationship.

If your problem goes away suddenly, it's likely that you'll forget the miracle just as suddenly.

How long did it take your problem to develop into something that you realized will take God's hand to remove it?

Psalms 37:34
Don't be impatient for the Lord to Act! Travel steadily along His path.


More than 12 years ago I let go of thinking my husband would one day have an affair on me. Wrote it on a piece of paper and nailed it to a cross. Two days later a huge test came and whispers came.

The reason I gave this up, was I realized by not trusting him, I was hurting him. It hurt me to know I was hurting him, when he didn't deserve it.

Today I realize how holding onto the past lies are hurting Jesus. I have to let go of them.

[mlg]

Exactly sis. Letting go of past lies will build the bond between you and Jesus even tighter. Everytime you believe the lies, it's one more gap put between you and your Jesus. So now that you've decided to let go of the lies, the gap will begin to fill with Truth and love.

He is so very proud of you.

luv ya

[Dora]

Amazed at how great it feels to be rid of some weeds.

[mlg]

uh huh me too. Feels good to be able to fight the battle again and not feel like I'm being drug through the mud by my feet. Feel like I can fight this to win...how about you?

luv ya

[Dora]

At time it felt as if I laid down in the mud.

Today is day 10
ten is one of the perfect numbers, and signifies the perfection of Divine order

Before I looked up meaning of number 10, I had wondered if yesterdays events were planned by God.

Did he plan me to fall and need forgiveness from a friend?
I put the stumbling block in my own way.
Listened to words I new better than to listen to.
Allowed my reaction to keep me up all night, and continuing to fester into today.
Forgiveness of self does not come easily.
Did it all happen just as he planned so I would see I need to work on this?
I hate messing up.

Yesterday had to of been the best day ever, despite what was going on around me and how the day ended.

[mlg]

I think so Pine, I think God wants you to forgive you as He does, so He is going to test you continually in this area, til you finally realize it's easier to forgive you than to fight it.

Day 10 is a great day sis. A perfect day for you and the Lord. Enjoy it.

luv ya

pine,
something the Holy Spirit led on my heart to share and remind you of.



Romans 8 :14 because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.


Rom 8:15 For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father."
{ No need for bondage of the past to control your present and your future, but we received the spirit of adoption where we cry Abba Father, Daddy

"I want my Daddy"

Our natural fathers in our lives can no way compare to the fatherhood we have in Him. We are adopted we have a NEW daddy.}


Rom 8:16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children.
Your own dad was not equipped to your dad. He was a promise breaker not a promise keeper. He was a drunk. You have to decide to pick a good part (if u can find a good one, did he work full time?) and reject the bad , but dont reject him as a soul. He was a disappointment in your life because of our Fathers expectations. He was never equipped my sis. Learn to accept that your father would of never lived up to our expectations. You had a no good dad, but look at the Father we have! You are adopted! Since he never changed you should change your expectations for something greater, that he never was equipped to be your dad.

But thank u Father! Thank U Jesus! Hes got you! You are His!

Gbu sis
