And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Lament is a form of prayer that honors our pain and expresses it to God. It's a way of saying, 'This hurts, God, and I need you.' What do you need to lament today? Psalm 34:18 "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." God is waiting for you to come to Him. #silentprayer #faith #crying #godhearsyou

God is your refuge, and you can run to Him when the storms of life come.

Inviting Christ into the wounds, emotional scars, and trauma will make all the difference in the world. It means we no longer have to carry them but give them to God. Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted. He doesn't just meet us in our strength; He meets us in our weakness and pain. What is one wound you are ready to invite Jesus into? Isaiah 53:5) "But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed." Meditate on this Scripture as you surrender your pain to Jesus as the ultimate healer.#healer #wounded #trauma #emotionalwounds #emotionalhealth #anewyou
