Owning Our Stories

Wounds make us hide our true selves, and if we don’t allow Jesus to deal with them properly then we can’t live out an authentic life. The great news is that Jesus doesn’t leave you in those moments of shame as fear causes you to pick at the scabs covering your wounds. As with Peter, Jesus dealt with the shame attached to the wounds of Peter’s guilt because he had denied His saviour. Jesus sat right in Peter’s pain, and Jesus will sit with you too in those moments as He reveals His scars to you. The scars that have declared victory over death and pain, over shame and trauma, over humiliation and abandonment, over abuse and betrayal. The scars that heal every wound Satan has inflicted upon you so you can trust Jesus with your future completely. Where has shame stopped you from owning your story?
