Inner Healing

This week Rachel and I were asked to help teach the class on Inner Healing to the DTS students. We were both pretty pumped.

Until I started to get ready for it. As I prayed, I really felt God leading me to "expose myself" and share from a really vulnerable place. The topic I was to be sharing...Rejection. Ouch. Turns out that I know a little about that topic. Then I got words from many of you that confirmed what God was telling me. So I went for it.

Let me tell you, you can come to terms with a lot of things in your life. But when you have to say them OUT LOUD...IN PUBLIC, that is just something totally different. I was crying before I even started class. I stood up and saw one of my friends from across the room and mouth to her, "I don't think I can do this." So she prayed and I cried some more. It turned out really good though.

Through that and the other classes, God has totally been working in the students' hearts. Last night, we had an awesome time of ministering. The students were broken. A few of them were actually weeping (most were crying). God gave us words. It was beautiful.

Thank you so much for your prayers!
