For those of us who have experienced trauma, the idea of spiritual freedom can feel out of reach. So many basic aspects of our humanity—like owning and exercising our freedom—were never fully developed. We were often too afraid to choose freely, fearing our choices would upset others and lead to our rejection or abandonment. So, we forfeited our freedom without ever learning how to use it.
But healing takes us back to the point where we stopped growing. And yes, it may look messy or even irresponsible at first, but God delights in this process. He desires our healing, our growth, and our freedom to become who we are meant to be.
