Praise the Lord for He is good and so faithful!
I have struggled with cutting for almost 8 years now. It started out small at age 14 and grew into something that consumed all of me by the time I was 16 years old. I have been trying so hard to quit for 3 years now and today I pledge to never go back. Today marks 6 months of no cutting, something I've always hoped for but I never really thought I would see. God is so good.
It has been a long journey and I'm still walking it, but it's different now. Looking back at every baby step along the way, realizing just how carefully planned every detail of the last three years has been (and, really, my whole life) just blows my mind. God never ceases to amaze me.
Things are different now because I trust in my God. He walks beside me every moment of every day. My body is a temple filled with His Holy Spirit. He is my healer. He created me and He loves me and He is faithful. He has a wonderful plan for me that I cannot even begin to predict. Thank you, Lord, for deliverance- deliverance that has, perhaps, only just begun. Thank you Lord for victory and thank you for the strength to continue fighting.
Thank you to those of you whom God has used in my life over the last few years, and the last year or so especially. I have been blessed by so many Godly women in so many different ways. So many of you come to mind, and I just hope you know that you are wonderful!
Be Still,
Ashley Anne :)
