Thank you Hillary (and Lewis at Commandments of Men) for peeling back more and more layers for me, it has been a journey. While my story is not so immersed into the picture of the Patriarchy cult, but rather more of Authoritarian parenting with the inability to let adult children go. I'm in my mid twenties and next week, I will be stepping out from under it all. Going to a safe place where I can get my feet under me and start making my own decisions with God as my guide. On one hand, I feel fortunate to have been able to do many things other girls have not, I drive, am self employed, have my own bank account, and other "freedoms". And yet, in this journey I can't help but feel a little "robbed" in my life. And now is the time, to proclaim my identity, as God made me, not what I look like in my family, persay. Oh, and I have a special guy who loves me just because I am me. It is the best. :)

Don't give up, Ame! :) It does take years. Do you have anyone in your life who is affirming on a regular basis that God is pleased with you?

"He is not the vindictive, always frowning and upset God that you were taught He was. He smiles at you with unconditional love and acceptance of who you are right now. He longs to comfort you. He can’t wait for the time when you discover His true character and know that He is compassionate and kind and merciful and full of grace. He is willing to win your trust; He won’t demand it."

even with all the yeas of work, i wish this wasn't still so difficult to believe.

I needed this reminder especially today leading up to the holidays and the family gatherings. I often feel "odd man out" because of the decision to step away from the lies and into truth. Finding strength and persuing my heart...thank you Hillary for caring about others in the stronghold of Satan's lies
