When the bad begins to outweigh the good, it may be time to address what causes the negative behavior. Give yourself the gift of freedom by taking a journey to the place that birthed your pain. You deserve to live a life unburdened by a painful past and negative memories. The choice to suffer in silence is mainly due to fear and shame. We can end this widespread epidemic by being unashamed of our makeup. God is ready to help you overcome those strongholds by confronting the things that kept you in bondage. The past does not define who we are, yet who we become is dictated by who we are today.
