Deep Healing

I have been listening to the audio book of this fascinating work by Timothy Keller, and I have to say that I am truly convicted and enlightened by all the connections I have been making!  Chapter 3, 'The Healing' has shed so much light on my character.  I thought that my suffering was the main problem.  I used it as an excuse.  "The main problem is not suffering it's sin." I would blame everybody and everything else for my suffering when it was the sin of discontentment all along.  "The main problem is not what people have done to you....it is the way you've responded to that...empowering"  Ding ding ding! That was an epiphany for me.  This whole week Jesus has been peeling back the layers and layers and layers of "dragon skin" so my true self can be set free.  It's a wonderful feeling but also kinda scary because it means complete vulnerability and humility.  But I'm embracing the deep healing that only God can do.  This is gonna be one heck of a journey!  ~Dominique a.k.a Songstress08
