Numerous things send daily reminders of the pain I have been through over the last eight years. One is sunsets.
Something that God has used countless times in my life to comfort me, my pain had taken it away to where all I could do was ignore God’s love and comfort.
As I learn to enjoy some things I have not enjoyed for some time it comes with a fight to believe that God made the sunset for me just as much as He made it for the next person. That I can look at the sunset and it is personalize for me not the pain tender in me that reminds me it was always for someone else.
Fighting the pain to God’s abundant life is always marked with the endurance of the cross. The cross that was filled with abuse, rejection, betrayal, and abandonment. But the most amazing thing is after Jesus was crucified in three days the power of God was able to heal Him from the pain of abuse, rejection, betrayal, and abandonment. When He was healed He rose. Healed and ready to go back and minister to the ones that caused so much pain.
Now when I look at sunsets I see an amazing man that died for me to offer me the healing I need.
