A Tender Spot
November 20
Dealing with some pain, I asked my husband to rub the compromised area.
At one point I had to say, "Stop, the pain is too great."
Emotional pain came can be very similar...sometimes there are places
we just can't go and we need to set boundaries.
Praise the Lord Jesus is never out of bounds!
He is the ultimate comfort zone.
In Charles Wesley's hymn "Oh, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing" there is a lyric which says: He breaks the power of cancelled sin and sets the prisoner free...
Christ's forgiveness and restorative power let freedom ring!
The holidays can be a tentative time when we walk gingerly into what can often turn into volatile situations. LOL...do you think that is the way God feels about everyday with all His children!
As we prepare the shopping lists, clean the house or pack the bags for the pending Thanksgiving holiday, let's be certain we are preparing our hearts to love as Christ loved and be able to offer the same forgiveness which is daily extended to us! And for that tender spot which is just too painful to touch yet... ask Jesus to wrap himself around it as a protective bandage, so nothing can penetrate the wound and bring further harm in the healing process.
Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus...for He is watching over you!
