Under The Shadow of His Wings

The Lord is our ever-present help in times of trouble. He is our refuge, and truly, it is under the shadow of His wings that we take refuge as we pray. The questions we must ask ourselves, even though the answers seem obvious: Do we truly seek healing from trauma? Do we want God to move in and through us, finding purpose in the pain? Do we trust Him enough to allow Him access to all areas, even deep within, to ensure not just healing but becoming whole? Will we truly surrender all to Him, trusting that He knows the specific healing we need? So many more questions that may be pressing and in need of answers. Perhaps, that is where we allow the Master Healer, the Great Physician and Lover of our souls to search the secret recesses of our hearts to uncover deep layers of pain and even hidden trauma. 

Trauma that maybe we thought had was healed, but isn't. It is in the secret place of prayer and digging into God's unfailing Word that will penetrate even the hardest of hearts. "For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 So, let's embark on a journey that only God can take us on, knowing what we uniquely need. Praise Him through the process, seeking to come out different, better, and closer to Jesus than ever before.
