Sharon's Testimony

I am like many people today, possibly even you.  I was raised in a dysfunctional home.  I learned to live functionally on the outside, while I was dysfunctional, broken, and battered on the inside.  By the time I reached thirty years old, I had survived more than my share of emotional pain.  Marijuana, alcohol, food and even sex had become my drugs of choice.  I thought when I received Jesus as my Savior that I had reached the ultimate place in my life.  I did not realize it at the time, but that was just the beginning of my journey.

Emotional abuse, verbal abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse had molded me into a victim; with victim mentality.  The side effects from the abuse were depression, panic-attacks, migraine headaches, stomach ailments, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and even self-mutilation.  My healing has been a process that has taken years.  I as not wounded overnight, and I did not receive my healing overnight.  Countless hours were spent in prayer and in the Word.

For years as a Christian, I led a defeated and dysfunctional life.  Although I was saved, taught Sunday school, and played guitar in the praise band; my behavior, speech and emotions had not changed.  I had to learn how to apply God's Word to my daily life.  I had to learn to be a 'doer' of the Word.  It was time to stop surviving the abuses and circumstances, and start overcoming the abuses and circumstances! 

It is my desire to teach others how to turn their lives around for the glory of God.  It is a choice you have to make.  Defeat is easy; that happens 'naturally.'  You have to change your life to line up with the Word in order to recieve the victory.

Choose to change; choose to line your life up with the Word of God.  Choose to change your behavior and speech from dysfunctional to functional, from poverty to prosperity, from sickness to wholeness, from defeat to victory!  Be Blessed!   Sharon Walker
