As human beings, we all carry scars, some visible, others hidden deep in our hearts.
Life has a way of breaking us down by way of broken relationships, betrayal, childhood wounds, abuse, rejection, grief, and trauma.
Each blow leaves us wondering, “Will I ever be whole again?”
Maybe you, having experienced a number of these, have learned how to survive but not how to truly live. Maybe you have tried to move on, but something keeps pulling you back to that place of pain. Maybe you smile in public but cry in private.
And maybe, just maybe, you are tired of pretending you’re okay while you’re not.
Let me tell you this: You don’t have to carry it anymore.
There is One who sees you, One who knows your pain even better than you do.
His name is Jesus.
Jesus doesn’t Just Patch you up; He Makes You Whole. He isn’t just a religious idea or a distant figure in history. He’s a living Saviour, and He came not only to save your soul but to heal your heart.
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
Psalm 147:3 (KJV)
So many people have tried to fix spiritual & emotional wounds with physical solutions, such as relationships, addictions, success (or at least their definition of it) or distractions.
But none of these last. None of it truly satisfies. Only Jesus has the power to reach into the deepest places of your pain and bring true healing. He is the Great Physician, and no wound is too deep for Him to heal.
The Past may be part of your story, but it doesn’t have to define you. The enemy simply wants you to stay stuck in your past, whispering lies like: “You will never be free”, “You’ll always be broken”, or “God could never love someone like you.”
Resist those evil imaginations and thoughts, and know now that there is Freedom in Christ.
When Jesus died on the cross, He not only carried your sins, He also carried your sorrow, your shame, your pain, and your past.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28 (KJV)
You don’t have to be bound by trauma. You don’t have to live in cycles of hurt. Through Christ, you can walk in freedom, healing, and new beginnings.
So come with your pain, your questions, your anger, your trauma. He is not afraid of your mess. He welcomes it. He welcomes you.
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)
Jesus is not asking you to have it all together. He isn’t looking for perfection. He is simply saying: “Come”.
Come with your wounds.
Come with your questions.
Come with your past.
Come and find rest for your soul.
You may have been hurt in the past, but you don’t have to stay there. You may have been rejected by people, but you are accepted by God. You may have lived in fear, but in Christ, you can live in freedom.
You have really tried carrying it on your own. However, now it is time to surrender it at the feet of Jesus. Healing and transformation are possible, and it starts with one simple step: coming to Him.
Don’t hesitate. Don’t postpone peace. Don’t delay your deliverance.
Jesus is waiting. Come!
