Ouch! That Hurts!
And if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. ROMANS 8:17–18 ESV
“Mrs. Washington, I am telling you—it’s a bad idea,” said nurse Chris. “This new eight-foot slide and gymnasium with monkey bars for our fourth graders is a disaster waiting to happen.” The school had received a grant for activity equipment, and the decision was made to purchase a slide and gymnasium with trapeze bars to be placed on the playground. Despite the nurse’s warnings, the equipment was installed, and the injuries began. It was the usual scraped knees and elbows—at first.
Emma was sent to the nurse’s office after a fall from the monkey bars. When she walked in, Chris noticed she was holding her arm as if to protect it. When Chris conducted her assessment, the arm had a little bruising and no swelling. Emma was able to move her fingers, and the arm was not discolored. But when Chris touched her arm, Emma hollered out, “Ouch! That hurt!” Chris initially thought it was a sprain, but it could have been a fracture. Chris called Emma’s parents, who took her to the emergency room. The X-ray revealed fractures in three places.
In life, we may not realize how hurt we are until someone touches us. Outwardly we appear strong, yet internally there is something more going on. How wonderful it is to know that God is there to heal our hurts. Like an X-ray machine, He sees the things that remain invisible to the natural eyes. You can safely reveal your hurts to Him, and He will help you heal those places no one else sees.
FATHER, help me to release my pain to You. I want to feel Your healing touch in my heart's deep, hidden places. Help me to place my life completely in Your hands and trust Your will for my life. Amen.
