Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed. Proverbs 15:22 New International Version
We all need help with problems some times.
Sometimes that will mean going to a therapist.
It is in my opinion better to go to a Christian councilor who has a Bible based therapy. They help you see what the problem is and how to solve it.
How many of these non-Christian councilors do nothing but give you drugs which does not deal with the core problem. How many new age councilors blame your parents or society instead of dealing with you and how to deal with the situation?
That may also mean going to Christian self help groups like Adult Survivors of Child Abuse.
I read where seventy percent of adults in the United States were victims of child abuse so if you are one of them you are not alone.
A good place to start is with Focus on the Family. They have many resources to help you, including how to get in touch with a therapist.
Another good place is in a Christian book store that has a booklet that lists therapists in your area.
I praise God every day that Christian councilors helped me to heal from an abusive relationship and learn how to effectively in a Christ centered manner deal with abusive people.
I have seen people who went to non-Christian therapists who ended up as zombies because of the drugs and never have the core issue dealt with.
Prayer: Please Jehovah Ropheka (God our healer) move all those who read this and need help to take action to find a Christian councilor to help them of past hurts and how to properly deal with any addictions that enslave them. I ask this in the name of He who healed so many when He walked the earth Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sweet sunshine of Jesus' precious love bless you today and every day.
