Healing: Day 8

This one is going to be short but sweet. I was watching the movie A Thousand Words  last night. It was funny, and packed with principles. Principles of healing. The big idea that I took from it was that "The truth shall set you free"
John 8:31-32
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 

This is a very practical statement Jesus used that can be applied to many areas in our lives. Now about healing. You will continue in a cycle of hurt, anger, and reaction based living if you do not know the Truth (capitol "T" hah!). In healing, it is necessary to understand the truth about why you are hurt. It's important to admit the truth about why you may feel less than, angry, etc.

Chances are it will be difficult to do this. Some of us have been in a repetitive cycle of pain, sorrow, and/or anger for a long time, some of us since we were kids. This applies to men and women. OK, we know women talk more,... Don't get me wrong, but there is nothing like when a man shares the truth about whats on his heart. This world is full of sin and brokenness it effects us all. Let us find peace in the Truth of God's Word.

The Lord is after the Way the Truth and the Life. Find your answers in the person of Him and the work he did for you 2000+ years ago.

My husband shared His heart with me this evening. What a privilege, an honor, and furthermore a picture of the connectedness & submission of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Thank you God for a marriage that grows stronger with time (and kids...).
