Praise from pain!
Verse for Today: Sunday, January 12, 2014
Psalms 147:3 - He heals the broken hearted and binds up
their wounds.
We go through emotional trauma
when relationships rupture or when our plans fall apart and we encounter
failure and loss. Problems in life situations and relationships cause more
heart aches than even the attacks of germs on human bodies. Medical science has
determined that it is often easier to treat and improve a physical illness than
emotional illnesses caused by heartaches. Emotional hurts lead people to
innumerable mental and behavioral aberrations which culminate in a long list of
physical ailments. This world is a frustrating place and it causes untold
miseries to human emotions. Sometimes, we get hurt because of our
over-ambitions, over-expectations and uncontrolled desires for more. At other
times it is caused by the conflicts in our relationships and situations which
are a result of our own unwise decisions and emotional immaturity. The
medicines provided by the pharmaceutical companies will only treat symptoms and
not causes. But if we go to Great Physician, He will provide healing for all
our hurts. The Word of God is the greatest healer here on earth now. Its power
penetrates our souls and will give us comfort and peace in times of great
agonies in life. We get healed as we submit our hurts to the Father in prayer,
He will fill us with His Spirit to produce love, joy, peace, patience,
goodness, gentleness and self control which are Christ-like emotions in facing
our situations. We must admit to the Great Physician our emotional wounds and
ask Him to heal us of the wounds and sorrows of our souls. Remember, He is the
Healer of all our infirmities and He makes us whole. He comes to bind our
stripes and sooth our hearts with His love.
Dear friend, are you weary and
feeling miserable because of the wounds in your life? Are you broken hearted
and feeling deep pain and agony in your soul because of the hurt? Do you find
it difficult to concentrate on anything and have you lost your appetite and
sleep? Are you in distress and sorrow because of the deep wounds and feelings
of loneliness you have in your soul? But you don’t need to lose hope because
the Great Physician is coming your way today to touch and heal your broken
heart. He is available to you no matter what pain you are going through. He
understands your misery as He is your best friend to share all our burdens and
sorrows. He is a patient listener to all your prayers. He is willing and ready
to help you to remove all tensions, distress and anxieties. He wants to carry
all your burdens and so you don't need to carry it yourself. It is best to take
your burdens and pain to the Lord and keep it at His feet. He will help you
unburden yourself. He will send healing to your soul and fill you with the Joy
of the Lord which will be your strength as you face tough situations. He binds
your sorrows and wounds and pours in His oil and wine for perfect healing.
There are some burdens for which there are no human answer or cure, and so
there is no use lamenting over it or lose our joy. Leave those irresolvable
burdens to the Lord and bury it at the foot of the cross. The Lord will help
you to find peace in all situations and relationships and give you victory.
Jesus Christ is the solution to all your concerns if you give it all to Him and
rest a while. It will cause you to praise Him for your wounds which He heals
and pain which He wipes away.
Psalms 107:20 - He sent His
Word and healed them and delivered them from their destruction.
Thought for Today
When God touches and heals us,
even our broken bones will rejoice.
