How
many times do we experience hurt in all manner and forms and don’t say anything
to anyone….we sometimes think that we can handle it on our own? The truth of
the matter is that we may want to appear to persons that we are strong and we
can “handle” the pain but really, can we?
One
of my favourite Scripture verses comes from Psalm 121 which says “I lift up my eyes
to the mountains- where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.” And indeed ALL my help comes from the Lord
Jesus Christ.
Pain
or hurt is a feeling that we can never describe or explain to others but I do
know that there is hope, there is life after pain, there is a future after all
is said and done. One that is bright that offers hope, life, joy and abundant
blessings…..that is found in the Lord Jesus Christ.
