Pastor Tina - Processing Pain(9am)

Pastor Tina tells us about how God keeps His promises and how we have to believe this. When we do, we are safe with Him! Our mental health effects our perception of who God is. The pain of unwanted experiences cause pain and make life difficult, which makes it hard to know God's character. As we avoid pain, we avoid God. It's through our pain that God brings healing and teaches us who He is and who we are! We cannot limit God with our own beliefs. We have to read scripture knowing God loves us and is teaching us in his Word. We can't be on the throne of our own heart, God cannot heal us when this is happening. We can't walk around unaware of our own selfishness and prideful ways. The Word of God is true, but when we live in a constant state of protecting ourselves from pain, the lies begin to move faster than the truth does. Truth and patience heals!
