2007 - The Arrival, Part 3 (Video)

published Jan 09, 2008 07:53

Welcome back!  Hope the holidays were well with everyone!

This week we focus on our third topic from Isaiah 61 -- Jesus came to bind up the brokenhearted.  But what does that mean?  It seems to presume that all of us experience some level of brokenness that we cannot free ourselves from.  We have developed many means by which we can address the dysfunction in our lives, but no method to date can take us back to that original pain and mend our broken hearts.  So what do we do?  How can we experience restoration and healing?

Isaiah 61:3 gives us a glimpse at the loving mercy and restoration that Jesus wants to give us.  He cares so deeply about our pain that He took our brokenness upon Himself at the cross so that we could know a lasting freedom that surpasses our prior circumstances.  God is waiting for us to surrender those hurts to Him so that He can restore our broken hearts to a place of complete healing.  And though the process takes time, He promises to never leave nor forsake us -- He is always here, carefully crafting us into the image He originally intended.

If you are experiencing pain from a past wound and need help, feel free to e-mail us at tmorrow@newlifecenter.org or call us directly at 425-355-9330 and we would be more than happy to pray with you.

Be blessed!
