This was a good lesson -- one that I believe wholeheartedly in. I do believe that I've had a tendency to sweep the lies that satan is telling me under the rug . . . because I don't want to think about them or deal with it. I've cried out for forgiveness, and feel better for some time, but satan sure knows my weaknesses and uses them to his advantage.

I am going to use this method -- of speaking the TRUTH to the lies that satan is telling me -- that I'm stupid, that I should be ashamed of my past, that all my past mistakes are all my fault and there is no way correcting them. I know the Lord doesn't want me stuck in the past. I know he's forgiven me, and I have repented and turned completely away from the sinful ways that snared me in the first place.

Please continue to pray for me as I continue this journey. I am meeting with a group of friends from church tonight -- friends who I've been able to talk to most candidly about my feelings of shame & pain. I'm going to tell them about this path I'm taking and I know they will be thrilled. They have speaking the TRUTH about my past for some time, and their solutions have been the same as I'm finding in this study. Satan is going to be attacked from all sides, and I have faith that I will be able to rid myself of these lies that satan has used against me for years.

You're half way there and your enthusiasm excites me, I can't wait to feel that sort of conviction. Reading this gives me hope and I will be praying for you. Remember what Jesus said, "I am the way and the truth and the life". God Bless
