partners of Joyce Meyer Ministries.

Don't give up your lives to keep somebody else happy.

That won't keep a relationship with you if you don't

let them control you.

I do what I do because I've seen God's power transform my own

life and He will do it for you.

I believe that God can heal you every where you hurt.

Did you know we've all been hurt?

There's nobody in here that hasn't been hurt.

You know my story, I was sexually abused by my father.

I was trying to think the other day what my first memory

was as a child.

And I was even more worried about my father.

I was even kind of surprised myself.

The first thing I ever remember was being afraid of my dad.

He was just mean.

I just mean.

And he had a spirit of a lost.

That didn't just affect me, but anybody that he got around.

And I'm not here to tell that story tonight, but by the time he

got finished with me, I was a mess.
