"Yet a time is coming
and has now come when the true worshipers will worship
the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the
kind of worshipers the Father seeks." - John 4:23

My Heavenly Daddy is healing
me from the inside out.

Transparency is Real.
Many times painful.

Daddy let me be secure in You only!

A BIG-TO-DO


In sharing some milestones with my t. tonight that I have over come this past year, especially with tremendous growth in the area of pleasing people, and being able to say "NO," we have noticed that it is still difficult for me to get excited about my accomplishments.

It was not easy being brought up with negative parents. My father was not an encourager. He did well speaking his mind. Did not matter if you were family or not. His words could cut you deep and leave you bleeding along side of the road. Even his look of disapproval had a certain sting about it. Did not take me long to feel the pain he inflicted on my little heart.

So when I responded tonight as I shared with my t., it was like... "oh well....yeah so I did it, so what" type of feeling. Not making a "big-to-do" about my accomplishments.

Well..... apparently it WAS A BIG-TO-DO what I have accomplished!

My mind knows I have improved. There is no question about that. I know I have come a long way since a year ago and I see the growth. But, my feelings still have not caught up with my heart.
