Are you walking around with open emotional wounds? Wounds from your past where you have been hurt emotionally by others. Are you letting the pain of your past dictate your future? Are you letting the pain and the wounds from your past keep you from trusting, believing, and loving God and others? Open emotional wounds may not be seen with the visible eye but they can be seen by the way you act and react to situations in your life.
Understand, wounds will sometimes bring with it scars. A scar tells a story. It tells that something has happened and healing has taken place. Scars can hurt even after your body has gone through the healing process. They can hinder movement and sometimes they require additional treatment. Are there things in your life that you have been through emotionally that still bring about pain and hinder your forward movement with God? If so, you have to know that God wants to heal you.
God said in His Word that He is Jehovah Rapha, our Healer. Jesus took stripes on His back for our healing and we have to make sure we are applying the blood tour our lives. Just like we apply antibiotic cream to open wounds on our physical body, we need to apply the blood of Jesus to open wounds that are affecting us emotionally. God wants us whole and He wants us to experience total healing and breakthrough. We just have to trust Him to take away the pain and to heal us completely even when we see the scars that may be left behind.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Psalm 147:3
