Life Lines
By Linda Lariscey
LOVE HEALS
In Psalms 107:17-21 (TPT), we read:
Some of us were such fools, bringing
ourselves sorrow and suffering all
because of our sins. Sick and feeble,
unable to stand the sight of food, we
drew near the death gates. Then we
cried out, "Lord, help us! Rescue us!" And he did! God spoke
the words “Be healed," and we were healed, delivered from
death’s door! So lift your hands and give thanks to God for
his marvelous kindness and for his miracles of mercy for
those he loves!
Can it be true that we bring on ourselves suffering and
sickness? No, not in all cases but indeed in some. Sins of
the flesh can bring damage to both our souls and bodies.
Hate aims to kill, but love has the power to heal. We
should all learn a lesson from the psalmist to consider the
Lord’s lovingkindness and mercy. He is the God of second
chances. He stands ready to heal our disloyalty to Him, to
freely love us, turning his anger from us as we turn to Him
in repentance.
The many afflictions of this world make it hard for us to
understand the love of God. We get out of whack with Him
and ourselves, leading us into sin that pays dividends of
death. The god of this world steals, kills, and destroys.
He finds pleasure when man lives in disharmony with His
Creator and Father. He delights in the suffering of people.
He sheds innocent blood and has no regard for anything
decent and righteous. When our focus is upon the darkness
of this world, and we attribute it to the Father of Lights, we will
undoubtedly suffer, grow cold in our love, and have minimal
regard for our fellow man who God created in His image.
You will never know how to love yourself and others until you
first see God’s love for you. Though it is incomprehensible,
we are to grasp it and hold tight to it through our difficult
journey on earth. It’s time to turn to God, seek His face,
and think about His compassion for you despite your many
failures and weaknesses. Be conscious of keeping yourself
in His love and looking for His mercy miracles to come to
you. Beloved, step into the unseen realm of glory by faith
and experience God who is Love.
