Will You Heal?

  No, it isn’t your fault that you can no longer trust anyone. It isn’t your fault that you can’t even love a person wholeheartedly. It happened over and over again and each time it happened, your heart was brutally cut into pieces that seemed irreparable. Every single time it happened, only your pillow knew you cried. 

Even the pillow couldn’t console you as it is inanimate. All of the persons you could lean on their shoulders and peacefully shed those tears have been cut out. You had to cut them out because you just don’t know who they are on the inside. 


You say to yourself, “what if they are not who they portray themselves to be?”

“What if I get hurt again?”

You who used to illuminate the darkest of places with your smile have now crept into some shell, keeping on a frown.


You can’t even stand a five minute conversation with a person. You just want to creep back into your shell and listen to that music that you supposedly think is an antidote to what you feel but in reality it only makes you more depressed. But what can you do? You just need something to make your mind stray from your pains and worries and insecurities a little.


Every hand stretched out towards you, even though in love, just appears to be an invitation to further breaking your heart. And again, it’s not your fault.

You trusted such hands several times and all they ever did was shatter the already shattered heart of yours.

You have now built walls around you that no one can break through.


Can I tell you that those walls you built around you to protect you from getting hurt again have actually kept you in bondage? Yes, the walls that you built to protect yourself are actually keeping you imprisoned and not protected.


Why take all the pain in alone? Why not give yourself the liberty of being happy? Why dwell on your past when there’s a future ahead? Why blame yourself from being naive and trusting all the persons you trusted?


Why hold on to the pain and keep your heart burdened when He said “Come to me, all who are weary and heavy burdened, and I will give you rest.” - Matthew 11:28.

1 Peter 5:7 “ Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.”

He cares for you. He is reaching out to you. Only Him can heal your broken-heart.


He is deeply concerned about you and your well-being. He wishes every single day that you will come to Him so He can heal you. He has reached out to you through some persons several times but you couldn’t accept them because you couldn’t trust them.


Dear woman, Jesus Christ is reaching out to you again. He is the healing balm you need right now. He is reliable and the only person who wouldn’t break your heart, but instead mend it.


Come out of your shell! Break those walls! Accept His love and His stretched out arms. He wants to heal you. He wants to make you free again. He wants to restore that smile that illuminates the darkest places. He wants to restore your joy and peace. You just have to accept Him into your heart.


Will you deprive yourself of your healing or get healed? Will you choose to be happy or sad?


That therapy never worked because it isn’t what you need. Just like soft drinks cannot substitute for water when you are thirsty even though both are liquid, so can nothing else substitute for the love of Christ of which you so need right now.


That anxiety pill never worked and will never work. Why? It’s not what you need.

Just like sugar cannot substitute for salt in making your meals, so can those pills never substitute for the love of Christ you so need right now.


It’s simple. Just be sincere with yourself and say it with intentionality in your heart. Invite Him to heal you. Allow Him to heal you. He wouldn’t come in without permission. Call on Him now.


Say this: "Lord Jesus, I’m broken and I know and believe that only you can heal my broken-heart.

Please, heal me of the pain, mend my heart, and make me whole again.

Restore to me joy and peace and put on me the garment of gladness. Amen."


It’s that simple. Now let the Holy Spirit do that wonder and activate your healing.


You are unique, loved by God and your worth is far above rubies.

Breaking the Jar of Oil

Standing before the mirror and seeing the many parts of you that are broken can be so painful. I know. The effect of the lies you were told, the betrayal, the “not so good” environment you grew up in, the many disappointments, and the weaknesses you saw in yourself, rather than the strength. All these things and more changed your default to defect. I know. When you act out and people say, “You need healing.” You wonder, “healing from what?” The defect is gradual and subtle, spreading through you like a virus, and before you realise, you're out of control. The anger, hatred, groans, tears, loneliness, lukewarmness, bitterness. . . I know. You stand up in defence at any subtle reach from a “friend.” Dear, the boundaries you've set around your life aren't safety measures; they are your prison. Yet, He who is near to the brokenhearted sees you. He knows. You don't hear Him in those painful times, and you concluded that He left you and will always be absent. Come on, dear! Y...

Unveiling Your Purpose

  Every person has a unique design, requiring a unique preparation for their distinct destiny. There is a “why” for every human being’s existence, and there is only one giver of the “why,” God. God in His wisdom and power made all things beautiful, diverse and unique, assigning a “why” that must be discovered and fulfilled in every being. Before each person's birth, God determines their purpose and assigns a specific time for its fulfilment. This “why” is the core of one's existence. Failure to discover, pursue and fulfil creates a gap in fulfilling God's eternal plan. This “why” is unique for every individual; however, its fulfilment is divinely linked to another person's “why,” making it  more imperative to discover, pursue and fulfil at all costs. The “why” is “purpose.” Many people ask, “what exactly is the reason for my existence?” and seek answers in the wrong places. The curiosity to know the essence of one's existence shows there is a Creator who has created...

THE SHEPHERD CALLS

For the pleasure of now, you want to discard the life He gave? For the need and want of now, you want to deny the very One that saved you from eternal death? You think the mountain is too high for the Mighty God to crush? Why does the praise of men matter to you more than the praise of the One who has called you out of darkness into His marvellous light? The beginning of the lordship of Christ over your life began when you gave your life to Him. You need to come into the consciousness that who you gave your life to is not man but God;  the very Creator of the heavens and the earth.  When you gave your life to Him, the dimension of Him called a shepherd could find expression in your life. You are His tender sheep who was once lost, whom He left the 99 for. Now you're home to the heavenly abode where you truly belong.  Who painted a picture of His lordship being a burden to you? Who is flaunting the temporal to rob you of your newly found life? What pressure is it that...
