What are the greatest wounds of your heart, those that cause you
to live conscious through the night?
What to do? Scenario after scenario
plagues your mind even as you try to pray through those lonely hours. Two great truths come with dawn; you can
always choose the path of love, the only way to healing and every night comes
with a dawn. Dawn is God’s continual
gift to you; love is your offering of gratitude to Him.
No one can make you choose love and wounds often bring out our
most animalistic tendencies. Have you
ever tried to tend a wounded animal, they withdraw and lash out, unaware of our
good intentions and our ability to ease and comfort their pain. We too can find our self hiding in dark
corners snarling painfully at God’s hand reaching toward us. His intentions are good but we can only feel
the pain of our wounds. Love, both
received from God and our response toward others, is the only balm for heart
wounds.
