The healing journey
Some people are on a long treacherous journey losing arms, legs and sometimes having their hearts fall out along the way. Most keep going, some stop and mourn their losses, asking why. The ones that keep going are the ones that are able to help others as they heal. As they help others they lose sight of their own need for healing. Some say this is not healthy but I say it is. Jesus did it on his way to the cross. In His hour of need He washed the feet of His disciples.
If there is a focus that is helpful to others outside of ourselves it should be looked at diligently and run after. When we stop and lick our wounds we lose ground and sometimes just curl up and die there. God's ways are different than humans. We spend much time making sure our body is cared for. We focus on our childhood wounds until they become an obsession. Keep going, when we are on the journey of Life we must keep going. There is healing in the going. Jesus said, "Go and I will be with you." He didn't say stop and I will be with you. Keep going.
