Picking Up The Pieces

 


He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds.  Psalm 147:3

With two young men in high school, both student athletes that play hard, and at times can be somewhat accident prone which tends to lead to the usual scrapes and bruises and injuries that come from being boys. Of course both of our boys have made trips to urgent care centers a few times over the past few years, but I digress. 

There aren't too many minor injuries that cannot be healed by a Band-Aid and an ice pack or a laugh, but just thinking about the way we as parents tend to our children’s wounds is very similar to the way that God tends to ours as well.

God actually tends to our physical wounds and pains just as He heals our emotional wounds too.  There is no sickness, injury, or pain that the Great Physician cannot heal.

When God performs His healing in our lives, we find joy and others will rejoice in our healing.

Thanks be to God!!
