I was listening to a sermon by Pastor John Gray and he said "You can not conquer what you don't confront"
Those words are so powerful. There are many issues we try to suppress and run away from but at some point all that suppressing will cause internal and sometimes external damage. Until you come face to face with your scares you can not completely heal from it. We sometimes think avoiding the issue or trying to forget our issues will solve everything. We keep ourselves busy and do whatever we can to disregard unwanted thoughts. We try and accomplish achievements, and rush our process in life because we think accomplishments and moving on to the next chapter in our life will somehow erase the unfinished chapter. The damaged chapter.
Eventually we all have to turn back to that place of hurt. Yes, it is scary to think about but coming face to face with that hurt brings forth healing. This is not an easy process but releasing pain that once was suppressed brings restoration to broken places.
I challenge you to return to that damaged area in your life, conquer that pain that is holding you back. Its time.
~Isaiah 66:9 "I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born, says the Lord"
Stay blessed! =] <3
