I...Shawn, thank you so much for sharing your input. I really like the point you made about not knowing what areas need attention if the body is unaware of where it is hurting. Ignoring pain or dysfunction keeps us in the same old religious cycle and stands in the way of the healing process. Hopefully as we broaden our perspective and see that every person's life is not just "hunky-dory" we can begin to bring healing to the hurting. It may take stepping out of our comfort zones though! Thanks again for sharing, and thanks so much for reading.<br /><br />Jeanie Jeanie Olingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221519789473867001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020270586004385865.post-55561404493477049372013-08-24T23:55:48.472-07:002013-08-24T23:55:48.472-07:00Hey Jeanie!

I too long for the body of believers to stop gilding themselves with perfection, and start being honest with the struggles. How can the body see to itself when it does not know where it is hurting? With masks off, and scares shown, this can happen. If God has brought one through a struggle, and then another is open about theirs, and it's the same, then God can work the struggle of the one for good in the other. Its a beautiful design for showing God's grace and glory. We just need to peal back some layers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06647948738773498178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1020270586004385865.post-76520323065778651192013-08-24T11:28:20.289-07:002013-08-24T11:28:20.289-07:00Ursula,I am so glad that you are able to be there ...Ursula,I am so glad that you are able to be there for your mom and are able to share God's tangible love with her.

I'm presently a caregiver for my elderly mom (age 90) who as yet does not know Jesus as her Lord and Savior. She is miserable most of the time. As difficult as it is to take care of her because of her attitude, the Lord leads me to His Word and sites such as you have here. Greatly encouraged by your faith. Will keep you and your family in prayer. We are never alone. Lord bless you richly....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16148835324454543863noreply@blogger.com
