Recently, my mom was telling my children about a incident that occurred when I was younger. At the time, the incident seemed horrible. As mom told the story of me wrecking my bicycle, I glanced down at the scar that was left some 20 years ago. That scar served as a reminder of a pain that I once had.
Of course, when the wreck happened I was in pain, but as the days went on and I took my focus off of the pain...I didn't feel it anymore. When faced with transitions in life, do not focus on the pain, but rather seek God. Yes it may hurt now, but it is temporary!
Look at your future and realize how great it is! What happened in the past helped to prepare you for the harvest after the drought season in your life. If you didn't have those obstacles you would not have known what it was like to serve a God that hears our prayers, heals us of our infirmities and forgives us for our wrong doings.
CHAMPIONS, be encouraged! The scar is a reminder of a past pain....you do not hurt anymore because you are HEALED! Walk in your VICTORY!
"But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed." Isaiah 53:5NLT
