God is not the source of your pain,
hurt, or heartbreak. Jesus will not hurt you. Jesus did not come into the world
to hurt, but to heal. In Jesus, you can trust, you can hope, and you can
believe. In Jesus, you are safe and saved if you accept Him into your heart. As
you make the first gestures of reaching out and wrapping your heart around Him,
He begins to work to heal your hurt. Your work of investing your hurting heart
in Him is the most critical and challenging work of your life. Investing your
hurting heart in Him is what He wants you to do. He wants you to push your hurt
on to Him by investing your total self and total life in Him…especially when
you hurt. If you invest your total self in Him, if you push all you are over to
Him, He will lighten your burden. When you go to Christ with a hurting heart,
miracles do happen. Remember Christ is already within you. He is living and
alive in you this minute no matter how much you hurt. The hurt and darkness you
can feel push your attention away from Christ’s love, even though His love is
alive in you all the time. Your hurt is real, but whatever emptiness and
aloneness you feel is a deception because you are never isolated. No matter how
much you hurt, you are never, ever, ever alone because Jesus is always with
you.
