“Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story.” PSALMS 107:2
Do you see those scars on my belly?? I proudly wear those scars as a badge of honor because of what they represent. Let me start by saying that there is a big difference between a wound & a scar — When someone has a wound, the healing process can involve suffering that may feel worse than the initial acquiring of the wound. A scar says, ‘I’m healing & this is my story.”
God has a purpose and plan for my scars, & your scars. You see, I have these scars to remind me of just how much God loves me. I boldly and courageously show this scar to remind you that God is a Healer and a Miracle Worker. He truly is that light in the darkness, whether your darkness is on an operating table, in a bad marriage or all in your mind
There is a deeper reality
Do you know what scars really represent, though?
Healing.
They represent that a disturbance is gone. You’re forever marked, but not plagued by a constantly open wound. The wound scabbed over, then scarred. It leaves you looking different, but healed.
Over time, I will share more of my healing story. But for now, I want to encourage you to embrace your scars whether they are mental, emotional, physical or spiritual. And give God the glory for your healing. https://2empowerinc.org/resources
