But it can also be healing. When we relive the pain for the purpose of God using us, it can be the most powerful assignment He gives us.

You're right about it being difficult to go "there" and relive those times, but yes, God's amazing power shines consistently each time we do.Debbie Dillonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06542211096013253656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999930258339428520.post-50408769003289237522010-08-05T15:28:02.041-04:002010-08-05T15:28:02.041-04:00We'll be praying for you as you rewrite.
