Often the most painful wounds are hidden deep in the heart. Being hidden, they can be the most dangerous.
Setbacks and trials can take the joy out of living. Our faith is weakened and if we collect enough hurts, it will stop us from wanting to press forward.
Don’t let the hurts hurt you. The best plan of escaping them is to run to the safe arms of Jesus. Tell Him about them.
John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
If you can ever learn to trust God completely — without reservation — you have the tool to loosen fear’s grip on your life.
As soon as you come to the place where you know God will do as He promised and you leave life up to Him — your painful wounds — then you are free from the struggle.
You can trust the Lord. Give Him your troubles.
