Scars. We all have them. Some are physical and others, emotional. We were injured in one way or another. Our physical scars are quite visible, but our emotional scars are not.
These internalized misfortunes remain with us, as if stored away below deck. Buried feelings, without warning, can be triggered and abruptly resurface at any time.
Please know, you are not alone. Each of us carries invisible wounds, and we may even cry invisible tears. I can identify and fully understand.
Unlike healing physical pain, there are no ointments or lotions to treat our fractured emotions. I guess that's why we try to repress them inside. Yet the biblical psalmist said, "He restores my soul." And that restoration is available to you and me. No pain has to be in vain.
Telling stories of God's renewing strength through personal setbacks, trials, and adversity, I share what I believe to be enlivening pathways to lasting wholeness.
Join me in an adventure toward soothing our silent suffering and healing our hidden hurts. The body and soul are connected. By addressing one, the other is likewise affected. May God graciously touch those deep recesses of pain accumulated along life's path. Hope awaits.
