deal with the past

I am really glad that I did this study. I feel it has really helped me deal with my past and draw nearer to the Lord. I've enjoyed the time I've spent in His word and the time I've spent with Him. It has been hard at times, but it was definitely worth it. I think doing the study on-line without seeing someone has been helpful for me. Jennifer was able to point out things I needed to look at more and help me through the study. I was able to be honest, because I didn't see her. That may be a cop out, but at this time in my life, I don't know that I would have been able to verbalize some of these things. But I was able to do that here. That's probably a key to being able to go farther and receive the healing that I needed. In this study I really had to think things through, pray them through and deal with them. I just pray now, that God gives me the courage to use my past for His glory. And I know that when He calls me to do that, He'll give me the strength. It's like Corrie ten Boom's dad said, he doesn't give her the money for the train ticket until they are at the station. God doesn't give us the faith we need, until we need it.
