"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Psalms 147:3 NKJV
There are times when we all experience rejection, betrayal, and disappointment. But if we hold on to those experiences, we can remain in a state of perpetual hurt. Indeed, when we refuse to forgive and move on, we place a weapon into Satan's hands that he will use against us at every opportunity. It's not what has happened to us, but how we respond that matters. If we allow the hurt to gain control of our thoughts, it can undermine our emotional wellbeing. Jesus doesn't want us to go through life carrying old wounds; He wants to heal us. This is why He gave us the precious promises in His Word. Regardless of how badly we've been hurt, God always has our complete restoration in mind. "'For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,' says the Lord" (Jer 30:17 NKJV). If you have spent years wrestling with unresolved hurt, God has provided a way out. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." When He was on earth, Jesus was constantly healing people's pain and comforting them in their sorrow. And when He left earth, He didn't;t leave us high and dry. He sent the eternal source of comfort to live inside each of us—the Holy Spirit, who is our comforter, helper, and friend (see Jn 14:16). The hurts you've experienced are real, but God doesn't want them to be your greatest reality. His Spirit is always with you and will never leave you (See Heb 13:5). And you can draw from His strength through every painful circumstance and find healing when you've been hurt.
