Journey Day 51
I've been reading "The Sacred Romance" by Brett Curtis and John Eldredge. One of the key elements so far is that the heart is attacked by "arrows". They are painful things, events or caused by people in our life. Everyone has them, and sometimes they keep us from growing, connecting or loving others. One of my arrows is a breakup that caused the deepest wound in my heart. It caused self-doubt, and mistrust. I wondered was I not enough, what was wrong with me? Is there anyone that I can trust? Was I not worth fighting for? These questions caused so much pain, and created a deep wound within me. But the beauty of the wound is that it leaves room for God to heal if we will let him. He will fill our wound and heal our pain. Along with becoming a woman of character this journey has been all about healing, and allowing God to heal me completely. It's a beautiful thing when you see and feel the healing power of Jesus Christ in your life. It's absolutely incredible, and there is honestly nothing like it! The freedom I feel is indescribable and there is nothing like the love and affirmation God gives me. I never have to doubt or wonder if I'm not enough. I can always trust my savior, and there is nothing wrong with me, I am made and loved by the creator of the universe : )
