“Since the first time I went to the Father heart school in 2005, I have experienced that gradually a firm foundation was being laid in my once empty soul. In this way Father's love could and can be poured out deeper and deeper.

Mark told us that the more our hearts are being filled with Father's love, the more the traumas surface to finally disappear. I used to be very shy and ashamed and always felt guilty, sad and inferior. I was so ashamed that in a group I hardly dared say my name. Since then I have received a lot of healing. Now I know I am the daughter of my Heavenly Father.

The first evening Hugo gave us a scripture of 2 Cor. 6:18: “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty”.
This touched and still touches me deeply.

The pain that was caused in my soul during my childhood, my youth, my marriage and divorce was being manifested in physical ailments such as fibromyalgia and severe digestive problems. For more than 25 years, I had to follow an increasingly strict diet. I was told several times by various Christians that these so-called "food intolerances" had nothing to do with food but had everything to do with the wounds in my heart.

At Father heart schools and conferences, I could always eat anything, but once back home it always went wrong. After the penultimate Father heart school however and because Father’s Love brought a deeper recovery to my heart, I can have more extensive meals than before. And now, after the last Father heart school, this extension still continues. After all those years of boiled carrots with rice and rusks with smoked meat, every meal is a feast J

I don't have to "hold on" to all of this in a desperate way, but I can continue to receive at ease. It is Father's Healing Love that enables me to walk more and more in my destiny as His daughter in complete freedom and health. Astrid
