The Musings of a Writer / Editor in Training
I'm Ash. I love Jesus. I'm a wife and a mum. I'm a teacher. I'm also studying my Masters of Counselling. I started studying a few years after started the very hard work of engaging my own story of harm and trauma. This is a place where you'll hear my stories, as well as the stories of others. I'll also reflect on faith, healing and walking with Jesus. I pray that these words might encourage you to do your own painful but life-bringing work of examining your own stories, and allowing Jesus to heal the parts of you still locked in shame. For He came that we might have life, and have it to the full. Welcome, fellow traveller.

I’ve been in Psalm 17 and drinking this in.

Great quote. And amen on freedom instead of fear! I was reading the other day that God knew that it was easier for us as humans to believe promises than obey commandments. So He established His covenant with Abraham on believing promises, not on obeying commands, That wouldn’t come for another 430 years with Moses, as Paul points out in Galatians. And that’s why the New Covenant of grace and faith we belong to is about believing the promises. It was for freedom that Christ set us free! Hallelujah! Blessings.
