HABIT 5: Your Healing Plan
From your "sit place with God," may you be experiencing daily
His presence in love, truth, grace, and forgiveness that cares for your heart
well. Pain and disappointments will find their way into your life; therefore,
you need a healing plan. When hurt finds its way to you, be quick to share your
hurt with God and invite the Father of mercies and God of all compassion to
come and sit with you. He first wants to offer grace and comfort in His
presence, much like a parent to their hurting child. Then, He wants to offer
you His healing words that will help you to be strong and secure on your
journey of healing.
Remember, a healing journey is not an overnight stay; it is a process.
A journey of you and Him working through your story, pulling to the side of the
road as often as needed to care for your wounds, healing your heart with His
strong loving arms around you, His healing words streaming down from heaven to
your heart. God is your Redeemer and Restorer who is committed to making you strong,
steady, secure, and sure in your restoration process. Only Jesus can heal you
at the depth of your hurt. Look to Him for your healing. Live healed!
Reflection
First, journal from
your "sit place with God" your uncensored thoughts and feelings,
believing that your God values and desires to hear your voice. Your voice does
come to His ears, for He desires to listen attentively to you. Second, pause to
receive grace and comfort from His presence, His strong, loving arms for you
personally. Don't rush this time. Feel His loving arms around you. Feel the
strength of His real presence to you. Feel how His love and grace nurture and
center you. Third, journal what you believe you hear God say to you in His
healing life words to you. Do not censor. Believe God will speak to you,
believe and receive all that He speaks to you. You are His child and you belong
to Him. You will know they are His words because they will match the written
Word of God.
