She had her share of bitter experiences of life at a very young age… Of being over powered… of being forced into things she detested… She hated herself… she blamed herself that she couldnot overcome those strong hands that pulled her down and exposed her shame… Those hands had explored her and bruised her tender heart… Those hands came to steal, to kill and to destroy… But as she grew, time burried her past so deep in the darkness that she convinced herself it was all just a bad… a real bad dream… She grew up with the determination to stay in control.. to never be overcome by anything again… But is time really a healing agent??? Time might hide the truth for awhile… but the wound, if not healed through the true unconditional love, will just come back again… And that is exactly what happened when that little girl grew up to a young lady and fell in love with a young man!
She loved him… because she just couldnot help it… because he was just too good… and because he first loved her… He knew her past and yet accepted her just the way she was… He offered to heal her with his love… But when the love grew and started over powering her insecurities, fear gripped her again… Fear that the past hurt might repeat itself… Fear of loosing control… of surrendering… Fear of trusting that love wouldnot take advantage… Just a tender touch of love with her lover’s hand… but her thoughts went back to those ugly hands that touched her to bruise her… He saw her eyes that reflected fear and he spoke lovingly into her ears… “Perfect love casts away all fear! Wouldn’t you surrender and give yourself to me? Wouldn’t you trust me to love you and heal you and wash you and restore you and make you whiter than the snow… Wouldn’t you just trust me and surrender to my love?… Because I have loved you with an ever lasting love… Yes, I will explore your life… but not to bruise you… but to heal your wounds completely… Yes, I will over-power you… but not to steal, to kill and to destroy you.. but to exchange your weakness for My strength… Just trust Me my beloved… beacuse without faith it is impossible to please me!”
All like sheep have gone astray… We have commited sin… sins we never wanted to commit… sins that we failed to overcome… We have condemned ourself and have also been hurt by the accuser of the brotherin- the Devil himself. Instead of asking the faithful God for forgiveness and repenting of our sins, we chose to bury this shame deep inside the darkness of our hearts! But it will come back when faced with true love… When the light comes… when we are in the presence of the most Holy God, darkness has to flee… Our sins, how much ever small we say it is.. and how much ever we try to bury it… It will be exposed. Unless we have repented and surrendered it into His hands trusting Him to forgive, that sin will keep you in fear. Your past failures will scare you… and will prevent you from letting go of your control over your own life. But would you just surrender and trust God and let Him explore your life? It might be uncomfortable when he touches areas that you wish to hide… It might remind you of the condemnation that the devil speaks to you… But our lovely Lord exposes and disciplines those whom He love… to heal you… to cleanse you… and restore you to Himself?!… Because his heart longs to make you whole… And you dont need to fear His wrath or fear rejection… cause nothing can seperate us from His love… and perfect love casts away all fear!

@ bits n pieces : hmmm why not one religion and why not one god is a totally different subject. I dont undertsnd the connection between God being true and prctical and this.
But since you mentioned that, let me ask you something. A women who is married to a man, if she decides to go out with other men also… does that mean her real husband is not true? And if the real husband inspite of knowing the truth, continues to love his wife and call her back into his life? That is the story with my Lord Jesus. He loved the world, the people. He is like a husband to us all. He made us for His pleasure. Now if we like prostitutes chose to go away from Him to other “gods” and other “religions”… what can He do? He still loves us and calls us to come back to Him. But the grace period is not forever. The time when grace is available is limited and we will be happy if we choose to get back to Him now. Else we are doomed.

no gurantee. you might get hurt again. I dislike it when something/someone promises such impossible things because it only hurts all the more when you r hurt again and again.
