Looking For Healling? (7.)

[goldenviolet]

hi! this time it's just personal... little me. i have serious mental disorders. i took classes to help me cope. GOD's scripture and practice has healled my thinking. my illnesses however i live with everyday. i wasn't healled from my thorn... but my thinking has been healled. on my worst days i am a "wreck" ... but because i kept practicing looking for God's gace and will for me, i am blessed with joy... and desire to reach out to others. GOD IS SO WANTING TO TOUCH YOU!! i learned to let God draw me close, i never dreamed that God would make Himself so real, but when i started listening and walking in the scriptures... i discovered He was right there all along....waiting paciently for me to understand..... love dee

Very Cool, A true testament to the grace and healing power of our Lord. In the same way he created light from darkness, he drew you into the light from your darkness.

What thorn do u still have I dont understand... u have joy now ... is it that ur functioning is still affected ?

 

[goldenviolet]

not only have i been diagnosed with mental and emotional disorders since i was a child (i'm now over 30).... but i have been isolated, institutionalized (longest for 14 months): (not left my house for three years), depressed ( everyway imaginable... even while on meds), abused, alone, swallowed up, suicial you name it!!! .........................my thorne is my mental disabilities.

i still suffer from mental problems....(ask anyone who knows me... we just call it "little" quirks) with all of these other things healed though.... how can i not rejoyce!?

when i realized all the doctors and family in the world couldn't help me.... i became really angry at God. little seeds were still in my life about God though. eventually i started crying out to God... with everything; all of my anger... all of my hurt... everything i was. then i began to ask Christ to change me... because i was so bad and disobediant that i couldn't ever get anything strait. POOF! it wasn't right away...... i started leaving the house two times aweek for my therepy/ i took classes to help me manage my mental illness.
(i had christian therepists who would also pray with me)..... i began reaching out and going to church. I CRIED THROUGH THE FIRST FEW SERVICES... and didn't feel like i belonged etc., ...... one thing at a time.... one goal at a time.
one accomplishment at a time..... all of it with a submissive heart... not sin and faultless.... just willing.

i don't even think i have the right to call it my thorne, that i still have mental road blocks! this is what God used to draw me close to Him!!! i have ups and downs all over the place... but my joy remains. my cup runneth over, i rejoyce and praise God!

now because of what God has done for me... i want to love Him and others. Jesus is teaching me how to cope on my journey. and i just want to reach out to whom ever can benefit from the things i found to help me.

GOD BLESS YOU!! love dee (anyone pm me if you want to!)

That is so awesome. I also feel the same way. I am completely JOYFUL when I am alone with Him who satisfies my deepest needs.

I am so encouraged. You go, girl! , ,
