It's Time to Divorce Rejection!

DAY 5 OF 5

SCARS ARE REMINDERS WE SURVIVED THE WOUND!

Jesus not only survived verbal abuse, but also physical abuse, and He had the scars to prove it to doubting Thomas:

“Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it in my side. Stop doubting and believe.” John 20:7

Do I remember all the things throughout life that tore me down? I do, but I only recall those scars because I choose to turn them into something to build others up. We are called to build up, not tear down. Divorce rejection and become a builder!

Jesus told Thomas to view the scars that wounded Him. Jesus not only survived, but He also thrived and is living at the right hand of the Father to this day. He has the perfect balm to completely heal our emotional wounds as well. His scars presented proof that He was who He said He was. Our scars are reminders that God brought us through!

God’s creation of the brain holds on to countless data. Because of free will, He leaves it up to us how to choose how we will process our lots in life. If you are still holding onto old hurts, it’s time to let them go and give it all to Jesus. Rid your life of bitterness and hatred that your mind has allowed into your soul.

Divorce Rejection!

CAN YOU RELATE?

One of the things that helped me is the following quote by 14-year-old Amy ‘Dolly’ Everett, who took her life because of being bullied. Her name became famous as a model advertising the Australian Akubra Hats. Dolly had left a sketch of a dancer with these words above the sketch.

“Speak even if your voice shakes!” Her family now uses her message to speak out against harmful words, known as bullying.
