Lesson #17

Lesson #17: Time heals all things. I've heard this many times in the past month. While I know people believe this, I respectfully disagree.

To me, time does not heal all things. Time does not heal emotional wounds. Physical wounds, sure. Physical wounds get bandaged up and over time the pain (usually) completely goes away. But I don't think emotional wounds. I believe that God heals all things. It is in "God's" timing, that wounds are healed.

This is more of an observation than a lesson.

"I am above all things; your problems, your pain, and the swirling events in this ever-changing world. I guarantee that you will always have problems in this life, but they must not become your focus. When you feel yourself sinking in the sea of circumstances, say "Help me, Jesus" and I will draw you back to Me. If you have to say that thousands of times daily, don't be discouraged. I know your weakness, and I meet you in that very place.
- Jesus Calling, Sarah Young

For me, it's not necessarily only about time, but God's timing.
