How were you taught to see your body? How can you work with God to change what needs changing?

I don’t have to continue feeling afraid, suspicious, and angry. I don’t have to question myself or hate myself. I don’t have to. God makes all things new (Rev 21:5).

Proximity to God enlightens, emboldens, confounds, guides — and, yes, frustrates beyond belief!

Dear God, I want to believe You like me, love me, and delight in me.

There’s only one place where things are figured out…

What frames of mind formed from the abuse remain rooted in you?

In what ways do you choose to stay in your darkness?

We need to be big people, God, not ones swaying in the wind.

Abuse bleeds into our perceptions of all things, but God’s grace offers the way out.

In what ways does a fear of not mattering impact your life?

God will run straight at what hurts us.

We think if suffering remains, prayers are not answered. This is not true. Prayers are always answered. God is always with us.
