A woman's story · Binding Up the Brokenhearted

Sincerely loved

When I first came to Healing Hearts I was apprehensive, unsure and separated from my Lord. I had allowed unconfessed sin to create a barrier between myself and God. I was like a bush in wasteland, withering and dying. Week after week I studied the lessons and slowly in God’s perfect time He revealed to me how much He loves me and that His Son’s blood covers all of my sin. I had been waiting for God’s punishment for my abortion. I was convinced that some terrible thing would happen at some point in time, that God would definitely punish me for what I had done. I lived each day in fear of God’s punishment. I also convinced myself that God could not forgive me for aborting the baby I had prayed for. Healing Hearts allowed the Holy Spirit to show me how awesome God is and how much he loves me and that His sacrifice is sufficient to cover all my sins. I left the study knowing I had been forgiven, knowing that I had been reconciled to God and with a sincere desire to live for Him and serve Him and follow Him obediently.
