scars

here i am typing this instead of working on my psc essay....... procrastination!... but yeah... God.. HELP...


i saw a guy in the mrt on the way home from campus today and he had a huge scar on his left shoulder... maybe abt 3 inches long... and nearly 1cm wide.. looked like someone was fighting with him and left a mark. so i was just staring at him aimlessly and wondering how he got the scar when the Spirit just prompted me to realise that some people may have physical scars... but everyone has some sort of internal scar... somehow somewhere.

everytime you fight a mental battle - perhaps the pain when someone says something bad about you and you take it to heart - it leaves a mental scar... if it occurs for long enough... perhaps an open wound in your heart... then there are the scars on your soul... everytime the devil launches an attack and manages to do some damage

and then i realised... that no matter how long you wait for the wounds to close... no matter how much therapy you go through... the wounds would only close... and they leave a scar -- scar tissue is much more fragile than original tissue... and it takes just so little to open up that wound again

and so we really really need God... God the only one able to wipe everthing away with Jesus death to give us a clean slate... to heal us into His perfection... changing us from glory to glory. Jesus was sent to absorb/ consume the judgement for our sins.. that we may be deemed righteous in God's eyes... to be completely worthy of His love... that we may be perfect in His eyes. God is just so good that He wants to heal and make whole every part of our life.. and Jesus made it all possible


amazing isnt it... and... haha.. i dunno why i just typed that
