Let me tell you that retreat was WILD and WONDERFUL. It reminded me of my even if NOT. As long as I can remember, I wanted to be married. I wanted that one person that I belonged to and who belonged to me. And it would be us against the world. But in reality I thought that I was too broken for anyone to want. So anyone who showed any interest in me became my last chance for happiness. I compromised every value I had to keep them. Did whatever I could to keep them. But inevitably I’d end up abandoned. But God. Through my church family at WFR Church and Celebrate Recovery – WFR I realized that I already belonged to someone-Jesus. I was just to broken to believe it. Oh In my mind I knew but my heart couldn’t accept it. He is my great love. He loved me when I made terrible decisions just as much as He loves the new creation He’s continuing to grow in me. And I don’t have to earn His love. I get to show Him my love by following Him. He knows I’m a mess sometimes and that’s ok because I now believe that His grace is sufficient. Even if God never sends my forever person I’m ok with that in a way I never thought I could be. I am satisfied with Him. I am complete in Him. If you had just saved me and not begun healing me and giving me a forever family, it would have been enough. Be blessed.
