Heart Of The Father
In the series "Heart Of The Father" we will discover deeper truths about who God is, how to put our full trust in Him, and how to heal from past wounds that hold us back.
The Fathers Heart is to see ours healed.
Part 4: Bleeding to Blessing
Life is a journey. So is healing. Keep Going.
In the fourth part of “Heart Of The Father”, Pastor Cameron inspires us all to not just aim for healing, but strive for blessings. As he shares on going from “Bleeding to Blessing,” we are encouraged to not just stop at healing, but know that beyond the healing, God has blessings for our lives. His desire is that we live healed and blessed. Being blessed is more than a health, wealth, or wisdom. It is an identity in Christ, knowing that we have a Father who loves and approves of us.
Apply:
Watch Sermon 4 and think about the following questions. (Journaling your answers is encouraged)

How has God transformed a wound into a scar in your life?
Question Two:
Who in your life can you be a blessing to?
Reflect:
As we heal from the past and establish healthy patterns for the future, it's good to take an emotional evaluation of how we currently feel. While we don't live by our emotions, they are a helpful guide to evaluating our current mental, physical, and spiritual state.
How do you currently feel?
Anxious, insecure, uncertain, sad... Take a moment to evaluate your current emotional state.
Whats on your mind?
Rehearsing or chewing on something from the past? Often times we find ourselves unable to move forward because of an emotional hangup in the past.
What are you afraid of?
What we're scared of often holds power over our ability to live emotionally healthy and free. Identifying what scares you is a good first step to shifting mental patterns and strongholds.
What can you let go of?
Sometimes our emotions rule over us without constraint. It's okay to feel out of control when it comes to your emotions, but you don't have to navigate the waters alone.
What are you carrying?
We all carry emotional baggage. Our response can be a result of baggage we're still carrying. Past trauma, broken relationships, rejection, and other emotional weights have a real effect on our present moment.
