A woman's story · Binding Up the Brokenhearted

42 years hiding a secret

After spending 42 years of my life hiding this secret and allowing it to destroy me from the inside, I found a church and a ministry that has allowed me to finally open up this part of my life. It helped me to get the healing that God has always wanted for me in order to walk in His will for my life. I have spent years thinking that if I did not address or acknowledge this secret, that it would just go away. Lo and behold, that is not God’s plan for my life. He led me to this place in order for me to finally open my life up and empty me of all my secrets so He could enter in and heal me. This study allowed me to find and understand a love of God that I never knew existed. He has shown me grace, mercy, forgiveness, love and the most awesome of sacrifices by giving His son for my life. I would not have been able to be reconciled back to God fully without this sacrifice and this is the most impactful part of my journey. I did not know the extent of the sacrifice, even though I read about it over and over. God brought a new perspective and light to the word for me. I have been impacted in a way that has forever changed me. I will continue on this love journey God has placed me on in order to grow, mature and develop into the woman He created me to be. I have a new outlook on life and my future that I have never known before. I am grateful and blessed beyond measure and would recommend this study to all who are desperate for the love of God and the life He has called you to.
