Wounded in the Church They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. John 16:2-3 KJV How many of us have been wounded in the church by someone who claimed to have the love of God in his/her heart but mistreated us as if we were beneath him/her? How many of us have been accused of doing something that we know we didn’t do? How many of us have been neglected and abused by the very people who claimed that God put them in charge of us? How do we heal from such wounds? How do we move pass the pain and disappointment? How do we open our hearts to receive God’s unconditional love when our hearts have been bruised and crushed? Honestly, it isn’t easy moving pass any pain. It isn’t easy forgiving those who hurt us beyond repair especially when those wounds are caused by someone of a leadership position. But how? How do we move on? How do we keep from allowing what one person has done to us to affect our willingness to trust others? It may sound redundant but honestly it will take prayer and time to heal all wounds. You have to literally give it all over to God to work it out for you and I am a living witness to that. You cannot allow what one person has done to affect how you live your life for God. Don’t allow a church to make you walk away from God. Don’t allow your trials and tribulations (which will come to make you strong) to stop you from giving God your praises. You must rely on God’s strength to lead you through those valleys of life. You must stand on His Word and remember that God is a Healer, a Mighty Stronghold, a Bridge over Troubled Water. You must remember that it is His Way, His path that you must walk on and as long as you are following Him, can’t nothing break you, stop you or tear you down. Be strong in the Lord and in all His might. Be blessed. We must also remember that there is no such thing as a bad day. We are blessed the moment we wake up. We are blessed the moment we are able to get out of bed and dress and feed ourselves. We must remember who our Father is and that there is nothing impossible to those who believe on Him. Amen.

Through out each page, she challenges readers to walk by faith and not by sight, fall head-over-heels in love with the Creator, to grow spiritually and become more Christ-like every day. Satara P. Ferguson admits that this is an expedition on a road less traveled by and there will be bumps, mountainous obstacles, and potholes along the way, but believes with all of her heart that it is well worth the journey. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
