Could there be healing in the fall?
Could you consider the idea that the reason for the fall we take is the redemption it allows?
Is the Love from Above so strong that they allow a fall to happen so we can be a brighter beacon of light?
“Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.” – Mathew 26:75
Each day we learn we are alive! Each step we stumble Jesus heals us!
A wonderful Brother sparked a thought from an earlier post about Love and the guidance we all need so much especially me. There was a healing from my breaking that could not have happened without that very breaking.
There is a Love that you and I can share but it starts with seeing things that can best be looked at while on our knees looking at the ground with our eyes closed. If the previous statement doesnt make any sense to you ask God to help you understand it but only if you really want to understand. By understanding it you can find life and without understanding it perhaps the scabs that hide you will endure.
Jesus knows the heart and that is why you have to know Jesus loved Peter. Zealous, energizer bunny Peter who would die for Jesus in an instant but Jesus wanted him to live for Love- which they dont teach much in Zealot School.
Stubborness can be a great characteristic for a mule but for a person it tends to make them look like another name for a mule which involves the north end of a south bound mule. To break stubborness usually involves the person being unable to follow what they believe or said they would die to protect and follow. That is why Jesus in His wisdom had told Peter:
“Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”
Peter was always around Jesus and always willing to draw his sword to defend the faith but perhaps the reason Jesus always had Peter around was to show Peter the faith doesnt need defending.
God is big enough to defend the faith and to take care of all sorts of things but He knows that our redemption comes through one sinle solitary word and that is:
LOVE!
Therefore let us LOVE one another as He first Loved us!
Let the fall heal you instead of steal you!
