In Tune – Exploring the Father’s Love 5-Day Devotional PlanSample

Day 3 – When you’re hurting – surrender to God.

It’s easy to skirt around your own sins and shortcomings when you feel like you’re a victim. Jen sold a knock-off violin at an exorbitant price with no qualms and no feelings of remorse – until she realized she was acting the liar and cheat that she had grown up with.

The reveal hit hard but moved her to a place of seeking the only One who could heal her from the wounds of others and forgive her for her own faults and failings. Her full surrender to God brought joy and the courage she needed to deal with the consequences of her mistakes.

What about you? What wounds have you been nursing? What sins do you need to confess? Can you trust God enough to surrender your life fully to him?

The love of your heavenly Father is unconditional and unwavering. Nothing will shock him, nothing will turn him against you when you seek him out. 

Take a moment now to pray. Let God heal and forgive. Expect good things.

Prayer: Father, I thank you that you are the healer of the broken hearted. I give you my pain and my hurt and ask you to heal my heart. I admit that I am not without sin and I ask you to forgive me and help me start anew. I love you, God. In Jesus name I pray, amen.
