19: Right Here! Right Now! You’re Beautiful!

14: Your Past Does Not Define You!



The world will tell you that you are the sum total of all your experiences. I don’t think so. Once Jesus comes into your life, you are a new creation—the old has GONE! Yet, we still hang onto much of our past Like a badge of honor. We let our past not only define our present, but also our future! We tell ourselves we can’t do something because of our past. We can’t succeed because of our past. We can’t be happy because of our past. How do we really step into the new creation that we are where are choices and mindsets truly reflect who we really are?

She experienced dissociative amnesia—memories of many years of childhood sexual assault remained hidden from her until years later when she when her father died.
