Her Story...
I am very proud to graduate from Well of GRACE Ministries. Just a few short months ago all my thoughts about myself and life in general were negative. One of my assignments was to read God Has A Dream For Your Life, by Sheila Walsh. The book uses the characters from the Wizard of Oz to illustrate its points. I wanted life to be perfect as Dorothy did. I avoided emotions similar to the Tin Man. I was ignorant to life around me, like the Scarecrow, and I was cowardly like the Lion because it was the easier and the softer way. However, all these characters sought to change, but I was content living in the misery and blaming past circumstances and others for my problems.
Today, I know different. Today, I know that I cannot dwell in that past life. I can move on and feel good about myself because I let go and let God into my life. By opening up my soul to God and accepting His love I now understand that even though life will bring me challenges, God’s strength and love will enable me to face these challenges in a healthy manner.
