I wanted to end my life, but somehow [Holy Spirit], I reached out to a friend who took me to hospital. I had three visits [hospital] in four months – I actually thought I was in hell. I imagine I was going through some sort of metamorphosis [mental, physical & spiritual]. I had been seeing a therapist [1994] on a regular basis, up until this point in time. I actually thought I would be locked away – but the hospital staffs were very supportive [I had no control over my process]. I was released from hospital 16th September 1994, but my fear, pain & shame had only subsided a little. I remember this particular morning waking up [home] & my process would start up again [fear, pain, & shame]. No one could help me, not even my therapist [I was terrified]. I asked Jesus Christ to have mercy on me & forgive me my sins. Slowly, all my fear has dissipated & I believe Jesus delivered me from my “psychological prison.” I am a practicing Catholic & the Holy Spirit is my friend & strength; every day since then has been a joy & blessing. I deserve to go to hell for the life I have led, but Jesus through His sacrifice on the cross, delivered me from my inequities. John 3: 8, John 15: 26, are verses I can relate to, organically. He’s a real person who is with me all the time. I have so much joy & peace in my life, today, after a childhood spent in orphanages [England & Australia]. God LOVES me so much. Fear, pain, & shame, are no longer my constant companions. I just wanted to share my experience with you [Luke 8: 16 – 17].<BR/><BR/>Peace Be With You<BR/>MickyMickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640944264646960474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20104292.post-1169787303796457362007-01-25T23:55:00.000-05:002007-01-25T23:55:00.000-05:00Thanks for the pointer, Salguod.

You might enjoy a book I read a year or so ago called <I>Repentance: A Cosmic Shift of Mind and Heart</I>. by a guy named Ed Anton. He really unravels the notion that it's about being sorry or simply stop doing some bad thing or starting some other good thing. It's about re-orienting our hearts to God's. Mind change. Transformation.<BR/><BR/>The book's available from DPI <A HREF="http://www.dpibooks.org/Default.aspx?tabid=59&cid=34&sid=0&ProductID=375&page=0" REL="nofollow">here</A> and I blogged about it <A HREF="http://www.salguod.net/weblog/archive/000373.shtml" REL="nofollow">here</A> and <A HREF="http://www.salguod.net/weblog/archive/000400.shtml" REL="nofollow">here</A> when I was reading it.salguodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14707268782911156269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20104292.post-1169690947937129292007-01-24T21:09:00.000-05:002007-01-24T21:09:00.000-05:00That makes me happy. :-)That makes me happy. :-)Kevin Knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788817477327510023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20104292.post-1169687994847300072007-01-24T20:19:00.000-05:002007-01-24T20:19:00.000-05:00Very good and well said.
