Staff

One of the weirdest things about being here is being a staff member. I graduated Teen Challenge over a year ago and I never thought I would be here. It's a different side of TC. I have to set an example to these women. To show them that God is just and righteous! That He's not a big guy that sits on His throne bossing us around. He is the Healer, The Lord of Lords, and King of Kings! He is more than we can EVER want or imagine! He loves us so much that He sent His own Son to die for us! People who are so unworthy of that kind of love! But more than that, they can find healing from their addiction, sin, hatred, bitterness, and resentment. I got asked what my "drug of choice" was and I told the woman that drugs weren't my struggle. However, I did have one: unforgiveness. I had hatred and resentment buried in my heart and I THRIVED on it. I didn't get a high from it, but I was so addicted to those  feelings that I couldn't live my life anymore! I couldn't function. I hurt those around me. I caused a scene wherever I went. I was depressed and a VERY unhappy little girl. I say that because that's not how a woman is supposed to act. This wasn't a planned post, it just kinda happened. All that I can say is that God has set me free from those things and it's such a wonderful place to be at!
