We receive hurts from others, maybe body is sick, perhaps hurt leaves us feeling unloved, used, rejected. So much different pain in life we live, to bring deep hurts and sorrow, soul cries many tears, heart often stops, holds breath, and waits to see if help comes unbidden because it has no more voice to ask.
Mat 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Oh yes! Our precious Lord Jesus feels pain of us, shares every hurt, every sorrow. He loves us then, now, and always, never will he reject us or leave us. We are loved by the Lord unconditionally, and so light is his burden. He can heal every hurt of us inside and outside, always he knows what we suffer, he knows what rejection feels like, He is not stranger to pain. We feel rejected by people in life of us.. but cept a few, whole world rejected our Lord and nailed to a cross they did to him. Jesus is great physician of all. No matter the hurt we endure, whether in body or soul, the Lord can heal all pain in us.
Mark 1:23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
Mark 1:24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
Mark 1:25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
Mark 1:26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
No greater pain is there than being tortured by a demon. Our Lord Jesus saw a terrible pain inside this man and healed him. God did not give us spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind. ( Tim 1: 7) God is creator of us, He knows all about us, including pain we hold in body or soul. If he created us, then He can heal us, BUT God will not force Himself on us, He waits for us to call Him so He can minister to needs of us. Always He waits, arms outstretched.
Heb 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Phil 4:11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
Gen 28:15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
Never will He leave or forsake us! This is promise from God Himself, and never does He lie. Never does God give up on us, and He wants us never to give up on Him. BUT there is one who likes to see us give up, to quit.. he is Satan, he attacks us with every kind of hurt so give up we will, and satan likes us to set blame on God for troubles we have. Satan is father of all lies, wants to destroy,kill and steal. God protects us always if we let Him, all we must do is...ASK. To ask help is to humble self. The proud shall not ask help, they pretend all is in control, to ask help makes the proud seem weak.
Mark 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Mat 9:12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
Mat 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
First we admit to self we need help before help can come. If we are proud, God will resist us surely. The proud does not admit it needs help. Our Lord gives much grace to the humble. When we are hurting and pain overwhelms us, we must remember our Jesus cares, He says He will take away our burdens and burdens includes the pain also. This day I give my burdens to my Lord.
