I started this study hoping for healing, but not really thinking that it would happen. I've read so many books, done many Bible studies, but, when the material got uncomfortable I stopped. I had no accountability. My abusive past continued to haunt me and took so much emotional strength from me. I completed this study, fighting with myself at times when it became difficult, but, I would wait a few days, chew on the material and get back to it. A miraculous thing happened in the process. God worked on my heart and showed me things that I was missing. I thought I had forgiven, but not everyone and not fully. I thought I had no bitterness, but found things I was holding onto that crept into my thoughts as I was praying about it. I found pieces of my life that I had stored away and even had cobwebs on them, but had to dig them out and file them away in a better place with complete forgiveness. Praise God. I am finally free.
