So I started this book a while back and was hurting so much I quit. But sometimes the pain means healing, so I started it over. It is "Life's Healing Choices" and it goes through eight steps(principles) based on the Beatitudes in Matthew 5 that are God's keys to finding happiness. Not perfection, contentment and healing kind of happiness, the freedom kind of happiness...So you will see each step laid out in the following in the folling manor. A brief of each with comments from me. And then as I complete each chapter (step) I will be blogging more... So here goes...Intro...
A girl and her world. Outwardly chipper, bright and sassy; but inside was being shredded by haunting memories both conscious and unconscious...Her life seemed impossible to fix and the feelings lasted. She ran (in very "expensive running shoes", her friend told her) to places far and near, searching for something, anything to make the pain go away. Change the scene, change the child? Suicide was not an option, but a tasty theory. She had tried everything--alcohol, drugs, sex, pills, busy-ness, church (just the empty act of going, no connection), friends, family-nothing was working. She wanted a different life, a different time, she wanted to know WHY? Why she felt like her life was so chaotic, so jagged. She stood in the mirror and cried...That young girl is trapped in me...It's time she was free...
