When you go through a difficult event, especially in childhood, some of your thinking and emotions can get stuck in that event. Though you go on with your life, parts of you can remain stuck, holding onto the pain. When you try to go forward, it can feel like something in you shuts down and holds you back. I know! This happened to me.
You don’t have to stay stuck! You can be rescued and fulfill your destiny. How? Ask God for help.
Then talk to the little girl deep inside of you.
For example, if you were sexually abused when you were little, talk to that precious little girl in you. You may wonder how you do that. What do you say?
Say to the little girl inside of you what you would say to any girl you knew was being abused.
“I’m sorry that happened to you.”
“It’s not your fault.”
“I’m going to get that (abusive) person away from you.”
“I’m going to get you out of here.”
Then, in your mind, see yourself doing just that. Big you comes in to help little you. Do this for each way the awful event has affected you.
God cares for you deeply. As you rescue parts of your emotions and thinking with Him, you are caring for yourself deeply too.
