This Christmas I am saying prayers for christmas healing esspeciallyt for my family.It has been a fall/winter and year of great hardship and spiritual trials but God is so faithful.He is continually amazing me at his hand in my life and my situations despite the tools the devil throw in to deter and upset and distract me and my family.God is Healer of all the hurt and pain the devil and this world can throw our way, he is there when the world turns a cold uncaring shoulder. We can really know the condition of our hearts when the world pushes us to the limits of our faith and it feels helpless and hopeless. Our God is still there, Our God is still faithful, our God is still arms outstretches waiting to be theree for us. Our God is greater than all worldly earthly trials and our God is interceding for us hoping and trying to help us make that right decision. He loves us despite how much we have done to him he cares what happens to us no matter how many times we have turned from him no matter how many times we have denied his name.Peter denied him three times and yet Jesus still loved him infact Jesus loved him and treated him no differently knowing he was going to deny him.Wow a Jesus that knows we are going to deny him and loves us anyways? How much need the healing hand of God in my life and how undeserving I am to receive that hand, yet I know its on its way to me. HOw hard it is to imagine he has never left me that no matter how far I strayed from him he was always right next to me waiting for me to change my heart and choose him. He loves me and he wants to be here for my family to heal what so badly is broken.
There is a song call "inside out" by "hillsong united" and the words mean so much to me it says this
"A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
Should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul
I give you control
Consume me from the inside out
Let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise
From the inside out
Lord my soul cries out "
No matter how many times I fail? wow how much I have already done to this God and to know he is and always will be right there to take me back. GOD heal me heal my family help draw us close to you and teach us truley to be christ followers and not just talk the talk of a follower but to really seek you each and everyday for the rest of our lives. and may this christmas be the christmas we truley understand the GIFT you gave us by giving up your son for us.
