Your Hurts for Their Healing

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God."
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NIV)


Have you found victory in Jesus? Did you push through your season of hardship and pain?

Maybe you've conquered alcoholism for 9 months- Maybe you are finally healing and moving forward from the loss of a loved one- Maybe you are recovering from abuse... physical... sexual abuse.

Through the help of Jesus you can say that you've defeated depression, suicide, anger, resentment. . .

Congratulations!

Your hurts can heal those around you. God can take your bad experiences and use them for His good. If you stop to think for a moment of someone who is facing similar struggles. . . at church. . . at home. . . at work- you can be a true inspiration to them!

There is nothing like learning from someone who has been there before. Someone who pushed through the trenches of hardship and despair. Your life experiences can mean the world for someone who is giving up on life. Ask God to show you someone you can touch- and share with them your victory through Jesus!

"Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective." James 5:16 (NIV)
