Just my Jesus and I, in the quiet place; no one else around…
It is safe now! All shields can be lowered. Everything can
come out into the light, and be dealt with… There is nothing and nobody to
fear, nothing and nobody to hide from. Only Jesus and I…
I can let go of all the emotions I’ve kept inside, all the
bad feelings I’ve swept under the rug. I can expose all those nagging doubts,
all those troubling thoughts…. I want to be healed. I need help and direction,
but most of all, I need comfort!
“Why do people do bad things to each other?” I ask from the
bottom of my aching soul…
“Why do they?” The pain is mutual.
“If only they understood; if only they listened a little
better, and cared a little more…”
“Exactly!”
“So what do I do, Jesus? How do I go on?”
“Don’t take your eyes off me, and keep walking! I’m right
there with you, until eternity. Follow me and I’ll take you home…”
Life is hard; there is no question about that. People are
selfish and insensitive very often, and the love of many has already grown
cold. Satan is out there shooting his arrows at anyone who serves the Cross.
Pain is the daily bread for so many faithful Christians. We have been warned in
advance that it would be like that by Jesus himself.
We are likely to get hurt sometimes, and even fatally
wounded. It is sometimes so hard to get up and keep walking, with all the scars
that are weighing us down.
But Jesus is with us. He is going to heal you, if you only
let him!
Please Jesus, heal me! Take away my pain, and make me whole.
Make me a good vessel for your love and for your service. Make me yours
completely, and take away everything that is not from you.
Just my Jesus and I, in the quiet place; no one else around…
And Jesus is speaking to me softly and sweetly; telling me words of love and
encouragement… I know I’ll be alright…
I love you all, my dear readers; and I wish you blessings in
the name of Jesus Christ!
