Today feels like one of grace. The week has been very busy with new clients, but today, the only one scheduled cancelled for being out of town. When I got up this morning I just felt like giving God a hug for a day without anything scheduled in it.

There was a young man who came a week ago last night to Celebrate Recovery. He had reached out the first of this week wanting a counseling session which took place yesterday afternoon. I had sensed that he didn’t have Christ living in his heart. As I went through the intake with him I asked if Jesus lived in his heart? He said he had gone to a few different churches growing up. I explained what asking Christ into your life meant and gave him scriptures outlining this along with a prayer. I said he could take it home and follow through with saying the prayer to Jesus if he wanted to take this step. He simply asked if right now would be ok? So, I got to witness this. It is humbling and very touching be part of someone’s salvation step.

I came into biblical counseling thinking the role is to help people find Christ in the midst of their current struggle/s. Once in a great while I get to help someone find the only real Healer for whatever struggle we encounter. I so love this Jesus Christ we get to serve!
