"You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore."
Psalm 16:11
"God comes to our lonely, anxious hearts and whispers our name. God says "I see both the fear you have of closeness and the deep longing you have to belong. I have come to comfort you and to respond to your need. I have been seeking a relationship with you. You belong. You belong to me. You are my child."

POINT OF FREEDOM



"When" I reach the point where what man's negative opinion thinks of me does not bother me anymore, and that shame that is not rightfully mine is a lost memory, then I know I have reached freedom!

I just want to go emotionally to bed.

  5. HI JBR - yes, freedom. And remember, what people say is only a force against you if you believe what they are saying is true. Never believe "them" because if you do you empower "them" and dis-empower 'you'.
    Love Gail
    peace.....

  6. You WILL get there some day! You have come so far already! Sometimes, we take big gigantic steps and make good time....at other times, we take little teeny, tiny baby steps that take FOREVER! Either way, we move forward. You are moving forward, JBR!
    Have you ever read Hinds Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard? So awesome! If you've never read it, would you let me send you a copy? Every time I pick up my copy (that I've had for about 16 years...I read it often), I think of you.
    Hang in ther JBR....we're right behind you!

  8. What people say to you, about you, it really doesn't matter. No matter what you do, good or bad, people will talk. Tune them out, find your peace
