FROM REST MINISTERIES
  The disciples were gathered in the room, their Lord had been crucified. They were discouraged, felt abandoned, wishing He was at their side. And then! He appeared ! Right there and He wished them His peace. The disciples were filled with joy - their questions now could cease! And then! Lovingly, He showed them the wounds in His side, His hands, wanting them to know He’d hurt, too and now He could understand… Understand each pain and each trial that they would ever go through, understand their tribulations for He had felt them, too. For God is not a God who kept Himself protected, not a God who played it safe and tried not to be affected. He was willing to walk our earth and feel what it is to be man; that was one of His intentions and part of His perfect plan . So when you have a hurting heart and in your personal pains and aches, know that He’s been wounded, too, and for you, His own heart breaks. In His mercy and compassion and because of all He went through, Jesus cares for your every concern and feels it along with you. When He goes to wipe your tears, know He’s had tears of His own. He’s experienced loneliness and loss, so you’re not wounded alone. No, you’re not wounded alone. About the Author: Cynthia Evans is a published poet living in the greater Atlanta area.
