Changing Denominations

[Falla39]

I'm reminded of the chorus of an old song from many years ago.

Where could I go, Oh, where could I go;
Needing a refuge for my soul.
Needing a friend to save me in the end,
Where could I go but to the Lord.

There have been times I have gone through
difficult situations and there have been hurts,
wounds and distress. But I learned after awhile
that there was only One who could work out
every problem, heal every wound, take away
the pain and could fill my heart and soul with HIS
love and peace. Even toward those who had inflicted
the wounds, caused the pain. He worked out the
problems and relieved my distress. Jesus took it all away
and I could easily pray for those who had caused the pain.
I could love as He loved, even after some time, even forget
it ever happened. And when painful situations came their
way, I could pray with love and compassion for them. Only
because of His love, mercy and grace.

He was wounded for my transgressions. He was bruised
for my iniquities, The chastisement of our peace was
upon Him and and with His stripes we are healed.
He bore my sorrow in His own body on the tree (Calvary).

He paid the price for these things. He can take care of
them because He took the pain for us. He paid it all, all
to Him I owe. Sin had left a crimson stain, He washes white
as snow.

But we have to give it to Him and allow Him to do the
settling, the judging. He judges righteously, in mercy. He is the
One who said, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain
(it will be there for you, when we need it.) mercy. And we ALL
need HIS mercy. If we haven't yet felt our need of His mercy,
never fear, we will.

Take your burdens (whatever they consist of), your sorrow, your
pain. hurts, wounds to Him and Him alone. Take them to the LORD
and LEAVE them there.

Blessings,
