Getting ready for our Beauty for Brokenness class #11 that will start at 6:30pm tonight. Our topic tonight will be, Dealing with PAINFUL REMINDERS. Our lesson will be demonstrated through LIVE drama. When we have gone through something emotionally traumatic, there are times when we face things that remind us of what we have gone through. Holidays can remind us of someone who use to be there who is no longer there; different settings, phrases people say, events and/or places can also trigger painful reminders of what we have gone through. When people are reminded of what happened in their life, they tend to go into a state of depression and some people even give up because to them it seems like everything around them reminds them of that traumatic experience. What we must understand is God can use those moments to strengthen us through it. Each time we are reminded of that emotional challenge, we may feel weak in spirit but we are really getting stronger because one day, THAT will not affect us anymore. People may not understand what you are feeling but God knows. Just keep moving forward THROUGH the reminders and know that God is with you and will strengthen you through it. 2 Corinthians 12:9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. #GodCares
