Shame can come from so many sources, and it's NOT God's will for our lives.<br /><br />Pegg - no kidding! I was a little fearful when my son chose the same college I did, but he's doing great - he's very involved with InterVarsity, chose a godly roommate, and I see him growing. <br /><br />"Reluvbe" - thank you so much! That's so good to hear. If your ladies would like some bookmarks, please let me know - I have gobs :)<br /><br />Carla - Hi! Love your writing too!

I especially appreciate you going to the trouble of listing how one can overcome this tool satan uses to hinder many Christians. I feel that many visitors to our blog this week will receive alot of help from that special word, Sarah. <br /><br />Being the adult child of an alcoholic and the victim of child abuse, I can certainly identify with your struggle, and am so thankful how far the Lord has brought me!

Shame is like pain - it serves an important purpose - to turn us away from sin and toward God. However, Satan then twists that good thing and tells us lies to make us stay in shame instead of living in joy. That Satan - he really annoys me.<br /><br />Carrie - hallelujah for His perfect love :)Sarah Sundinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08205570391669770574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-14856934339183403912012-01-08T18:51:13.782-05:002012-01-08T18:51:13.782-05:00MARIAN, one of the blessings God gave me when i go...MARIAN, one of the blessings God gave me when i got so sick a couple of years ago was the certain conviction that NONE of that mattered to Him. He kept speaking to my heart about his love and that He was there and that was what mattered.

Shame led me to the Lord. But first I found it hard to believe that God really loves me, because of the shame of my sins. I had to surrender this to the Lord. And then He took it all away.
