For all the girlfriends, partners and wives who are or were in a relationship with a man who is or was enslaved by the bondage of porn. This is our story.
@scottsauls @kimhillmusic Pastor Sauls, today I returned to my local church after an eight-year sabbatical, and the interim pastor shared a quote of yours: “Only in Jesus can we be fully known & loved, fully exposed, yet never rejected.” I look forward to reading/listening to sermons/teaching of yours.
I used to think that holding your tongue was a sign of maturity, but I realized that a true sign of growth and maturity is being able to vocalize your feelings in an appropriate manner even if you are angry. Holding your tongue just fosters unexpressed feelings that lead to
I sin against a holy and pure God.
That troubles me much more than other people sinning against sinners like me.
God is patient and gracious with me, I should be the same with people who’ve offended me less than I’ve offended God.
It can feel like chaos.
It can feel like insurmountable odds are stacked against you. One minute you feel OK one minute you feel like your soul and mind are in absolute upheaval.
We didn't get here overnight....
Healing is worth the hassle.
Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give but cannot. All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, & in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go. —Anon

God will show up in the times you need Him the most.
He will show up even when you think or feel there's no hope.
He will show up and take away the burden you're carrying.
He will show up because you're His child. He will never abandon you.
