This amazing God we get to serve is just that–AMAZING! Yesterday, one of the small groups I meet with did the lesson called Wounds and Triggers. It is connected to the curriculum addressing sexual addiction. This category was hugely significant for me as I did it myself for the first time. It is the first of 3 lessons on this topic. One gentleman in the group yesterday told me as he arrived that this lesson brought out the ugliness of his addiction. He said he’d wept the entire time doing the lesson and throughout the week. He said he’d wept driving to the church this morning.

God inspires ones like the author of this material to organize the lessons in such a way that the “students” are brought into a tough/vivid lesson like yesterday’s very carefully. It is the 10th lesson of 17. By this time, this man was ready to face the giants of his addiction. I know this so well. I can’t help but praise God for HIs kind yet thorough ways of getting us to where we can face our past with courage knowing God will and does forgive and purifies such an ugly area of our lives.

I STAND AMAZED IN THE PRESENCE OF OUR LOVING GOD!
