What pain are you trying to escape?

What wounds from your past have you refused to deal with?

Are you stuck in the cycle of sin?

What sinful solutions do you go to?

Will you let Jesus transform you?

Jesus needed to be broken so that we could be made whole.

Will you commit to the process?

to be transformed is to experience true healing and true repentance and to know the difference between the two.

Will you forgive others?

We cannot be become whole unless we both give and receive forgiveness

When we don’t forgive we keep the door open to the enemy of our souls

Will you forgive?

Are you willing to give your hurt and anger to the one who suffered with and for you, to redeem you from sin and provide the path to wholeness?

Will you overcome evil with good?

Will you experience true freedom from the pain you have endured?

Will you render the enemy ineffective?

Will you open the door to God’s power and presence and shut the door to the enemy of your soul

and become whole, become healed, become His.

Will you walk the healing path?

You cannot become whole without healing

Will you walk the repentant path?

You cannot become whole with out coming home.

Where have you been running from God?

Where do you need to turn back?

What do you need to repent of?

Do you want to get well?

without risk there can be no restoration

without trust than can be no transformation
