My Spiritual Journey


This past week I've been dealing with some disappointing situations.

Over the weekend,
the disappointments
turned
to wounds.


Deep wounds.

Wounds that penetrate the very depth of your soul.

Wounds that bring tears to the eyes with a mere thought.

Wounds that won't heal overnight.


But the fight begins.

I refuse to allow these wounds to stay open and fresh.

No they will not fester bitterness.

Through God's grace, the wounds will heal. They may leave a permanent scar, but they will heal. It may just take time.

God never promises we won't get hurt in life. He only promises He'll never leave us.

For he wounds, but he binds up;
he shatters, but his hands heal. Job 5:18

Behold, this we have searched out; it is true.
Hear, and know it for your good.” Job 5: 27

Goals from Last Week:
  • Reading Psalms before bed has been great. I haven't succeeded every night, but working in that direction. Meditating on TRUTH from scripture has been life giving this week.
Goals for this Week:
  • Keep reading Psalms before bed.
  • Keep meditating on the truth of scripture throughout the day
  • Continue reading Mastery and Life With God
  • No TV this week
