Random thoughts

I feel such joy! Such a burden lifted. Last night I reached a good breakthrough in my abuse recovery class. I was sharing some of my feelings on still feeling "dirty" even after all of this time, healing, recovery. I still feel like there is this big mark on me that makes me "dirty". A friend turned and looked at me and said "I don't see you that way!" We delved in to how God see's us and how we view ourselves. It's very uplifting to me that my view of myself is my perception and not other people's.

On another note, I want to reiterate that this blog is designed to share my thoughts, experiences, etc. on my healing process. It is not designed to place blame on anyone. For the most part, I have forgiven those who have wronged me in the past. The Lord is still showing me areas that I need to work on forgiveness and I truly understand that healing from the past is a process. I don't intend to dredge things up from the past over and over again. That's not what God teaches us to do. God teaches us to forgive as we have been forgiven.

Back to work I must get. God Bless you all!
