I've given up many TV shows I used to watch as well as Facebook because I feel God put it in my heart to focus more on things that bring me closer to Him. I gave up these things because they brought up feelings that Christ already died for and were bringing me down. I was seeing that people, even people who profess to be Christians don't have God in them. The devil is all about stealing, killing, and destroying,
New International Version (©1984)
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
I want my life in full. There are great people on Facebook and on TV, but I know that I am sensitive, I have a gift of discerning spirits and until I learn to submit this gift to the LORD, I need to sever my connection to some types of entertainment. I am closing my gates to these things now.
The Nehemiah study has helped me to come out of my comfort zone and identify with the poor in wealth and the poor in spirit. I am trusting God to help me get my MFT license and completing a program to become an ordained minister with A/G in the future because I want to be a Pastoral Counselor and a practicing Therapist. I have a heart that can break and I am a wounded healer who wants to help others.
