Why Hurt May Linger


Little things pick away at the scab of an old wound--a memory, an innocent comment, a face, a scripture passage, a phrase, a train of thought. Why? Why now? Why still?

God whispers.

Come near. Listen. I'm working and it may hurt a little, but know I am working. You will be better for it. Hold on. Draw close.

Trust Me.


No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

Hebrews 12:11

Fix your eyes on Jesus and endure.
