A Story of Hope

How has this study impacted my life? Where do I begin?! God has filled the hole in my heart. The hole was there since childhood wanting unconditional love and nurturing from my parents who were both alcoholics. The hole in my heart of growing up in an abusive home where I was never good enough. I spent my entire life hoping that someone would fill that hole, spouses, kids, friends, church, sin. This study has helped me truly understand that God is there for me, in good and in bad times, and that I need to stay connected to Him and serve His people, sharing the blessings He has given me. What I can do for others is something on my mind all the time. God’s healing is not a one stop shop. This is a process that will continue until the day I meet my Maker. I know I am so much better than I was before this study. I’ve gone from feeling like a victim to feeling like a victor. It’s all because of God.
