Inner Healing

"Inner healing is simply asking Jesus to walk back to the time when we were hurt and to free us from the effects of that wound in the very present moment. We might not remember these incidents. Often times we do not, but God does. We can ask Him to walk back into that time and to set us free from anything that is still darkness within us, anything that is still noisy within us, anything that is still taking up room within us, that should be reserved entirely for God. This involves bringing to light the things that have hurt us and not trying to repress them. It may involve talking them out with another person. Healing is a process. We take a lot of this to our journals so that we can get it into the light. It is the work of the Holy Spirit. Hurtful memories of the past cannot be ignored if we are to really become filled, full of grace, full of love with God. It is a journey, a process. We must remember, however, that we travel this journey throughout our entire Christian life with the Lord. Inner healing is not something that happens instantly. It may happen day to day to day. Even when hurts get healed from our past, there are still daily hurts that have to be brought into God’s healing light."
