Marcia’s Story

Marcia

Because of what happened to me in my childhood, I was very uncomfortable with my own self-worth.

I spiralled into a destructive cycle that lasted ten years. I went to specialists, therapists, psychiatrists. Nobody made an in-road into the issue.

But then a verse of scripture spoke into my life:

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

That was a liberating word, like a catch on a lock springing open; like a trap-door being lifted.

It set me free.

It broke into the self-condemnation that I was heaping on myself. Within two years of hearing this, I was free from the disorder.

Before I had felt so restricted, some days I felt that I couldn’t move.

This word made me feel like I could jump a mountain.
