I'll admit I felt somewhat guilty because I missed tuning into your talk on Friday evening, so I am really glad to see that you spoke via a prerecorded method! I do not recall ever hearing that Grace enables, empowers and strengthens us, only that we are forgiven our sins if we believe in Him. As I listened to your first point, I was thinking about what I now call my "identity crisis" in my late 20s where I spent the next several years with a psychiatrist and psychologists putting myself together. And then -- you went to your second point: God's Grace reveals and rebuilds IDENTITY! I felt the counseling became a project for discovering who I really was. I only wish you were available for counseling then because your God-centered way of counseling would have helped me become "whole" a lot sooner! Even looking through my more "perfected" self, there is a lot in your talk that I can internalize -- I took a LOT of notes! Thank you, Pastor Fernandez, for putting this inspiring message together! I look forward to your last February session. I hope that folks who would benefit from counseling, especially with you, will make an appointment sooner than later so they can begin the process of becoming whole and empowered by God.
