So many times, your voice has helped me to fight the accuser’s voice in some dark moments. Thank you for continuously sharing with us your journey with a loving Father. The accuser’s voice does not equal God’s voice. What a paradigm shift it is when you realize “He’s got me,” and loves me first. The accuser’s voice always demands that I reach “perfection” first before receiving God’s approval. I love how Jesus grabbed Peter “at once” when he started to sink. One of those things was “God being on the other side of my brokenness.” It resonates so well with me as this realization is what also changed my life. I really enjoyed the Urban Mystic podcast you were on. So much of what you said made me sit back quietly and ponder on the ideas. I received this email from her a few days ago: I’m going to let Hilda write my blog today. Into the lap of my soul and I mothered her.

Its drama unfolding as if it were yesterday-Īnd instead of looking away, I fixed my gaze there. I also wanted to print it here for those that wanted a copy. We talk about it more on today’s podcast.
On my recent trip to North Carolina, a good friend of mine, Dana Andrechyn, shared with me a poem she wrote that captures so well what it is like to run from the pain of the past and then finally find just the right time and space for Jesus to bring healing to your broken heart. On last week’s podcast and today’s at The God Journey, Kyle and I talk about dealing with the long-term effects of unresolved childhood trauma.
