I get it: God is the shield and protector of hearts. Once your heart is extended with pureness and unconditional love. He will mend it when it is broken.

I was afraid to love again. Love is like a fire that burns and once you know fire burns, why would you allow yourself to be burnt again? Wouldn’t you be cautious or do you not have feelings? This kind of burn can only be healed by God and can leave no scars.

God is love and His love gives us the strength to keep on loving despite the pain and hurt we may go through.  When we’re baptised in Christ we become one with Him(Galatians 3:27). Christ is in us, in those who believes in Him. If the battle is not ours so much is the hurt, discouragement and fear for the sake of righteousness. I believe that God takes it all for us because of Jesus our advocate and mediator.

God can change our mind, thoughts and our heart. We have to have the willingness to allow Him into our lives.

The prayer.

Lord help us to know that you are our shield in times of battle. Our shelter in times of a storm. You’re the light in our darkness, comforter in our distress. We trust in you to never be let down.

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to know in your heart you don’t like what God is taking you through and to be like Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane (Matthew 26:39) Thy will be done Lord. It take a lot of strength in faith. Thank you Jesus for the garden of Gethsemane for if you didn’t enter your wouldn’t of understood my pains, sorrows and fears, that you could tell me, “be still and know that you are God and the battle is not mine.

Sometimes it may seems like you’re running on empty because virtue has left your spirit. But God always pours more into you at the right moment.

God is whole not a piece or a half. His power is in the physical and spiritual healing of our soul. That kind of touch is what makes us run around the churches and act like we’re crazy.

Whatever conflicts you are battling in life as a Christian, just remember not to be hard on yourself, you are a work in progress, God knows! When your flesh is weary it is the spirit of God in you that carries you through.
