The Great Healer

1 Peter 2:24 (NIV)
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

1 Peter 2:24 (NLT)
He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds you are healed.

It is amazing how complacent we can become. The desire and prayer of my heart is that I will love and serve my Savior as I daily take up my cross and follow him. What a privilege to be called a child of God. No matter what our lives have been, we have the hope of heaven through believing in the shed blood of Jesus for the forgiveness of our sins. Whatever Satan tries to tell us, nothing can separate us from the love of God. Let's thank Jesus for healing our wounds and shamelessly tell others about His great love!

Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV)
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. [19] Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Matthew 28:18-20 (NLT)
Jesus came and told his disciples, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. [19] Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. [20] Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age."
