5:153 – Sore spots hurt

#faithbites #faithjourney #faithbites sore

Intro

We all have those experiences that we don’t want to talk about. Heck, I had a whole other #faithbites planned for today, but because this sore subject got brought up, I switched. I thought I had turned it over to God and let it go, but nope, I guess I didn’t. When it came up, I felt stupid and hurt all over again because it was out of my control but I felt like I let people down. I’m not happy and just sore. But I know God had a plan. For all of us with sore spots, there is hope.

Scripture

• Psalm 147:3 – He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
• Romans 8:32 – He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?

Prayer

Father God, you tell us to let things go and you will handle them. Sometimes we have sore subjects that no matter how much we try to forget them, they still hurt. There are times when it isn’t our fault and it still hurts. We ask that you deliver us from the pain and remind us that you are in control. Everything happens for a reason and those sore spots are no longer for us to dwell on. They are gone, washed away. Lord, let us rejoice and live in your brilliance. In your name, we pray, amen.
