“The war for my own heart and mind”

I thought leaving the Army would remove me from the dangers of war. But upon leaving the Army, I emerged into a different kind of fight: the war for my own heart and mind.

I went face-to-face with many memories, with the horrors and stresses of combat, and lost. Questions and doubts ravaged my mind: Why did I survive and my men die? Why did they send me there? Why does God allow such horrible wars to happen? Why can’t I feel anything?

However, the Trauma Healing program helped me to find my healing in the Word of God, and it’s also a key for the journey ahead of me.
