IF I HAD A DIME FOR EVERY TIME I heard someone say, “you just don’t understand my pain”; I’d be a millionaire. I was sitting talking with a lady one time and she shared the horrible abuse she suffered as a child and she says to me, “but you wouldn’t understand”. Hence, “you can’t help me”, hence “nobody can help me cause nobody knows my pain.” It’s the LT Dan moment, “Do you know what it’s like to not be able to use your legs!?” Yes I do LT Dan. Just because you see me walking now, don’t assume I’ve never not been able to use my legs. Just because my legs weren’t blown off in war, don’t assume they weren’t cut down in another awful way.

NOBODY and I repeat NOBODY doesn’t have some sort of story of pain, abuse, affliction, abandonment, rejection or persecution. I don’t have to go through your experience to know I’ve experienced some intense pain in my life. There’s no lasting solution or plan save one- sit and stay at the feet of Jesus. If your “plan” causes you to rely on that plan or another person for healing; you’re believing a lie.

The ONLY true and lasting healing comes from sitting in His presence and renewing your mind to His Word. Then, ALL THINGS are possible and ALL THINGS can be overcome. It’ll take some time to be healed through some pains; but God is faithful. His Word promises abundant LIFE and He’s given everything we need to live a powerful walk of victory.

“For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.” Isaiah‬ ‭57:15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ #runyourrace
