The act of giving ones heart freely is truly noble, daring. It is an act of love that I hold in the highest regards in a persons character. But what happens when that heart meets a cruel, mean and hateful heart? Many bad hearts WILL be met when traveling this road. But will that freely given heart be able to face that hurt with their head up, with the grace of an adult and not the grief of a child, learn from the experience and move on? Or will it withdrawal into itself, it's cave, scared and scarred not allowing anyone to touch or hurt it again until it learns to "GROW UP?"
I've seen too many friends withdrawal, not to be seen again. And it hurts and saddens me to see it. But praise God, He is the great physician, who can heal and restore all who seek his face.
I pray that we all may be that Light that shows this path of love to the hurting, the lost, the down trodden.
My encouragement has been given.
The rest is up to you!

...with the grace of an adult and not the grief of a child...
ReplyDeleteGood stuff.
I don't think God ever tells anyone to withdraw until they grow up.
ReplyDeleteanyone who says that to someone is ignorant to the fact that we're each growing, by His grace, closer to Him in the infinite gap between us and His glory.
I 2nd.
Reading your message tonight gave me encouragement as I am feeling down right now (things not going to well...in many ways)... but for the Christ in my life I will not be led astray in my actions for He is the only one who knows me better than myself !!!
