THE TRUTH WITHOUT PHOTOSHOP

This is one of the most moving spoken words I've ever heard... Poet Janet from Passion for Christ Movement shares the story of the sexual abuse perpetrated on her and her subsequent healing and freedom in Christ...

WARNING:
portions of Poet Janet's story are somewhat graphic and heart-wrenching... Ultimately, her story is a story of Christ's victory and Poet Janet's freedom and healing. (Thanks to my daughter, Caley, for sharing the link.)



A few thoughts:

First, this spoken word is an example of how some of the most moving pieces of art are born out of our deepest agony and pain.

Second, this spoken word is an amazing example of 2 Corinthians 1 on display.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NLT),
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

Third, let's pray for anyone who has been the victim of sexual abuse, that they will find the grace and healing that Poet Janet has experienced.

Peace and Grace.
