Attention to healing
The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Psalm 34:17-18 (NIV)
Do you ever feel burdened by past emotional hurts, struggles, and traumas?
Maybe we all do. We are all broken in a certain way. But that brokenness is not our identity — Christ is.
Let’s be honest. The healing journey can be long, painful, and difficult. But when we give our suffering to Jesus, we find peace.
How am I tending to my wounds? How am I helping others tend to theirs? How can I lead and serve from a place of healing?
Jesus is the ultimate healer. He understands our pain and always offers us his unending love and peace. As we heal, we are empowered to guide others through their healing journeys.
Prayer
Dear God, you know our pain and struggles. Please continue to heal our wounds. As we grow and heal, help us serve and lead others with compassion and love. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
