They say “hurting people, hurt people”, I wonder if it could be a possibility that healing people, heal people as well? There’s something about shared emotion that connects us, think of all the feel good movies, books or songs about real lives impacted by real situations and how they come out of it the better or the worse. You involuntarily became a cheerleader, sitting on the edge of your seat as things unfolded, shouting warnings about danger and the bad guy or crying too when it was all too much to bare. This is a part of the tether that holds humanity together transcending our race, age or creed.

We learn from each other whether we admit it or not. I wonder when the world will come to a humble point of accepting that good things are good and bad things are bad regardless of the race, religion and level of economic success behind the doers of these things. What if you really are your brother’s keeper? Perhaps the method of keeping has something to do with this..

A method to the madness

By virtue of being a healing somebody (somebody in the process of healing. Before we all rush to snake bones and other random things LOL) there is no one more perfect than you for the role of teacher, because your pain is a text book reference for a problem someone else may be facing and by sharing you can provide practical steps to start from and possible spanners that could emerge in the works.

Is it 100% full proof? Absolutely NOT, but nothing is as long as you are not God. Don’t you see that the kingdom coming on Earth as it is in Heaven lies in the salvation of many others through you because our creator is a chess grand master who will never be brought to a check mate by mere circumstances. To everything there is surely purpose, particularly in those things we least understand

Have you ever noticed how God consistently takes the underdog from pit to prison to the palace? This particular sequence though applying specifically to Joseph extends to all other influential people described therein. They all literally started from the bottom, (the woman with 18 years of infirmity, David the nerdy son, Esther the simpleton turned Queen, Moses of alleged giftless gab, a Cheating woman caught and saved from stoning by a Rock of Ages, Saul of murderous propensities and Job who got it worse than one with no job).

Its almost a science that the lower one is to the bottom then the higher one stands to be elevated, not because God is a trigger happy miracle slinger, as we often tend to sing at the pulpit, but because to everything there is a purpose and season. The bottom was a season of immaturity, fear and insecurity but through it those who have fainted not, have made some of the most astounding breakthroughs in all of humanity.

God can have someone live an entire life just to impact yours with their death, He can leave you in a cycle of consistent heartbreak to teach you your worth, He can break your bones to set them more firmly as they heal, He can get a message to you even in silence, He can flood a country to show how shallow we are as a people and he can create a resilient generation of never-give-up types that always adapt and never die from the circumstance….God is able in his eternal purpose to do exactly as He pleases and for the good of us all. Whether we’ve put in enough Sundays at church or smiled enough fake smiles at the people we don’t like, even if we have never gone for a single all night prayer…That’s God…His ways are not our ways…he loves us as we are but he also loves us enough not to leave us in some of our more destructive ways.

Why me God? Talk to him and find out..

He has methodically maddened YOU for a reason, there is something deeply connected to your specific DNA that can only be unlocked in a specific way by your kind of crazy. Call it a fashioning to fit that secured you a place on this earth to begin with. That’s why your self-worth is one of the greatest areas facing attack because if you just come within sniffing distance of your destiny that flame once ignited is unstoppable.

So if you were perhaps starting to think that too much has happened to and around you because you are so insignificant think again, it is simply the odds attempting to size you, but overcome them you shall because “many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all” through unexpected bonus boosts which include new life(s) to work with when we have lost the old one(s). He gives as many chances as are needed. it’s NEVER too late to go to him.
