So sure . . . . yet Is. 53: 4
SURELY [undoubtedly and unquestionably the truth]
He has borne [took and carried away]
our griefs [physical sicknesses, weakness and disease]
and carried [lifted up and away]
our sorrows [mental pain, sorrow, grief, sadness],
and YET we ignorantly considered Him stricken, smitten, and afflicted by God.
[Reasoned that anyone who was so hopeless and so despised; suffering so much and for so long, must have been abandoned by God and receiving direct divine judgment for their guilt]

Pray the Word:
Lord, if there’s anything we SURELY know to be the true, it’s that Christ took away our griefs and lifted away our sorrows . . . . and YET, at times, when life isn’t going smoothly and is looking hopeless; we find ourselves questioning, second-guessing, or misjudging the very thing we SURLEY knew. We even start wrongly accusing and judging ourselves – reasoning that You must not be pleased with us or we missed Your guidance somewhere and You have abandoned us and have placed us in divine judgment or this wouldn’t be happening. Help us to not wrongly assess our situations and miss out on the blessing You have destined for it to be – healing spiritually, physically and mentally.

Thank you for reading my blog of thoughts, encouragement and instructions the Lord speaks about to me. It is simply my therapy to write down these things as I walk my journey out with Him. I would love to hear back from you. Each new day is a blessing! Dorothy
