I'm choked up with tears right now. Not because of something bad but because of something amazingly good. A few years ago, my heart was ripped to shreds, I thought I would never heal. But I did heal and Christ was my Healer. My Jehovah Rapha. It took time, a long time, but faithfully, steadily, beautifully, I healed.
Today as I find my heart aching and maybe asking a few questions of God, maybe feeling a little unsure about God's ability to heal me yet again...I am undone by His heart beating next to mine, whispering to me of His past faithfulness to heal. And His present faithfulness to heal.
Jeremiah 33:10-11:
"Thus says the Lord: in this place of which you say, 'it is a waste without man or beast,' in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man or inhabitant or beast, there shall be heard again the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice if the bride, the voices of those who sing, as the bring thank offerings to the house of the Lord: 'Give thanks to the Lord of hosts, for the Lord is good, for His steadfast love endures forever!' For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the Lord.
