Healing Forward: A Need for Wise Counsel
After identifying trauma and choosing to forgive, deciding to move forward toward healing is essential. I have termed this process healing forward. Healing forward requires a community dedicated to healing and wisdom. Jesus, our wonderful counselor, has provided spirit-led men and women with the wisdom to counsel and grace to support your healing journey.
There is so much safety with wise counsel. This is vital, being that safety is the very thing breached during childhood trauma. The first indicator that you are amongst wise counsel is your sense of safety. Your entire nervous system, which is usually heightened (fight, flight, freeze), will be at a new level of rest.
Once safety is established, wise counsel should help you discover the plans and purposes of the Lord for your life (Jeremiah 29:11; Proverbs 19:20-21). Experiencing trauma causes the soul to be moved by the dictates of our past.
It is God's greatest desire that we would experience His grace (power to heal now and forward). Know that, in His kindness, God called you to share in His eternal glory through Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, He will restore, support, and strengthen you, and He will place you on a firm foundation (1 Peter 5:10).
We pray God will surround you with wise counsel:
1. Who is safe as you are learning to trust again
2. Who are patient as you are coming into the knowledge and understanding of God's will for your life
3. Who are spirit-led as they are bringing you to the awareness of God's grace that empowers you to heal forward.
