My Guide to Loving Relationships


 He STILL Does!
Back to Full Blog  

The couple came into my office expecting miracles. They were deeply wounded and horribly sad. They related a pitiful tale of tragic loss and pain. They wanted help and hope. They expected too much from me. So, I had to level with them.

“I’ve never repaired a broken relationship", I confessed. "I’ve never healed a broken heart. I cannot restore lost joy and lost hope. I cannot provide daily doses of supernatural peace. I’m not that good. I’m not that powerful. But, I do know Someone who can."

Yep, Theo, that's what it's all about, isn't it? We're just the vessels of hope, not the Hope Giver Himself. It's nice to know that we don't have to do the hard work of the heart....all we have to do is lead the way, right?

POH, you are absolutely right. All we can do is encourage them to open the door when he comes knocking! The door to the heart is always locked on the inside!

Dear Theo

I can show you the way - to mend a broken heart - because my has been broken and mended. One thing I have learned in my life is that a broken heart isn't fatal. But God can make it as good as new in fact improve it and make it better. Only God can do that - Only God -

But Praise God that He does do it with big hugs of Grace and Mercy - Amen He just pats you on the back and puts you back into the ring of life with new and improve parts and say "Run - go for it- be all you can be - My love is with you - so who can be against you?" - How awesome is that!

Lucy, God's forgiveness and grace is AWESOME. And, those of us who have experienced a NEW heart, a NEW hope and a NEW life, know exactly what you mean! Praise God. He delights in the rescue of us from our hurt and harm. If we TRULY understood how much we are forgiven and how much we are loved, no one and nothings would keep us down for long. We have every reason to rejoice and hope. There is none of us far from him and he is never far from any of us. God is always good no matter what he permits to harm and hurt us here.

Yes! Yes! Proclaim it! He still does. I've experienced Him and His power. In fact I can't make it through the day with out God and the love and encouragement He gives me daily. Thanks for a short but powerful post.
