    Change is not an option

    I had an experience today that prompted me to do this video on fear, this encounter was not a one off, I was aware of this problem but had not previously addressed it in a blog post or video.  Today I chose to speak because many may be struggling with this issue and are afraid of speaking out or afraid to take the necessary steps to change because of the perceived outcome.

    Fighting Fear

    Many are afraid to heal because they are afraid of who they will be after they a have dealt with the pain and grew through it.  To some extent, I understand the fear.  IF you have seen a glimpse of your greatness, If you have viewed even a small part of the creator’s design and His plans for you, it could blow your mind.  Go ahead blow your mind.  Abandon your current position and give up the codependent relationship that is stealing your value.

    Making the Change

    After you have taken that important and courageous step to choosing to heal you will never be the same again. Healing is self-discovery.  When you have ventured out on that journey nothing will be the same again.  Not the current relationship that you have maintained despite knowing that it was necessary to call time on it along time ago.  Not the job that has kept you stuck in the same position without the possibility of growth, not the friendship that is bleeding you. Nothing will be the same, but that is the beauty of change.  It stretches you and makes you uncomfortable with mediocrity.

    Make the decision to move out of your way,  do not stand in your shadow or dim your light.  Do not be afraid to stand in the power that God has given you and experience the peace He wants you to have.  Do not be scared of how the new you will impact the people around you.  Do not question whether you will be accepted or loved; many will not embrace the new you because the old one was serving them well.  However, this cannot be a deterrent for growth or standing in your truth.

    Change can be painful and challenging but well worth the effort.

     

  • Negative Feelings!! There is a Way Out

    Negative Feelings!! There is a Way Out

    The idea of how to manage negative feelings has mystified the minds of many for years and the answer seems to still be eluding people today.  Many people have questions such as; ‘how do I control my emotions?’.  There seems to be a cloud over this topic and the struggle is real and is affecting many.

    I have been asked this question on many occasions, how do I control the emotions that accompany hurtful situations?  What do I do when I am overcome with emotions that I have not been taught how to deal with?  The answer to these questions is not as elusive as we have been conditioned to believe.  In this post, I will begin to help you make sense of that question and give some added help that will enable you to begin a new life unencumbered by negative feelings.

    I will help you apply relevant scriptures to this very important area.  For example, focusing on what is true will help you manage even the most difficult emotions.

    You will learn that fear can hold you back from achieving your full potential.  I will help you examine several truths that are calculated to combat fear.

    1. Are you honest with yourself?
    2. learn how you benefit from negative emotions?
    3. Learn God’s truth about how to make sense of and change where you are.
    4. Learn how to accept God’s truth for you.

      I am sure you do not enjoy negative emotions, I am also sure you do not enjoy the feelings left over after anger, frustration and bitterness have ripped their way through you and coloured an argument or damage a relationship for the hundredth time.  You do not enjoy it but you are also perhaps at the place where you are lost and need direction. The big question maybe how do I change?  I agree there is a problem, but how do I change it.  Watch this video until the end and also watch the others in their series https://www.woundstoscars.com/healing-emotional-wounds-focus-on-truth/

    It is crucial for you to be honest with yourself in order to heal.

    Honestly, reflect on your fears.  How would you describe your fears, after watching this video you will begin to make the transition from worry to focusing on truth, you will learn  God’s truth about you and learn tips to help you make the transition from a life of fear to one of freedom in Christ.

    Honestly is required

    Take the time to honestly reflect on the messages that you have internalised and made a part of your life. This can be challenge especially because there is a lot of effort required.  In order to identify those messages you will have to be ruthlessly honest with yourself.  This ruthlessness will give you the strength to make the kind of radical change in your thinking that is needed for change to be effective.  I have every faith that you can do it.

    Are you stuck in a cycle of negative thinking and speaking about yourself?  If your answer to this question is yes watch to the end, you will learn tips that will be applicable to any emotional wounds, any trauma or negative feelings and help you on your way to enjoying positive emotions.

    Words have power

    Words are powerful, they have the ability to inflict deep wounds, whose words are you making the rule of your life?  are they God’s words or are the people’s hateful, spiteful and vindictive words.  In my last video https://www.woundstoscars.com/emotional-wounds-and-the-bible/ I also deal with this subject.  It is important to learn what God says about you and to make that the rule of your life.  He says ‘Whatever touches you touches the apple of His eye’ Zachariah 2:8.

    Through this video, you will learn how to honestly answer those difficult questions and apply the truth of God’s words to you.

     

     

     

  • Healing Emotional Wounds: Focus on Truth

    Healing Emotional Wounds: Focus on Truth

    Today we will focus on truth:  Truth releases us from the bondage of the past and the things we have been fed.

    Truth frees us to believe in who God says we are.

    Do you know what is your truth? If you are struggling to answer this question do not despair, God has truth for you.  If we focus on who God says we are and what He says about us, that is the best antidote against any emotional wounds.

    This is our guideline for truth; whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. Philippians 4:8
