Life Wounds

Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart – Acts 2:37

How can these pricks be healed?

. Only One who is divine can heal wounded heart.

. The only hand to apply it is that which was pierced.

. The only medicine is the blood of his heart.

. The only fee required is gladly to receive him.

Let us ask the question, “Men and brethren, what shall we do? Let us then obey the gospel, and believe in the Lord Jesus.

God is working while you wait...

“I wait expectantly, trusting God to help, for he has promised” Psalm 130:5

God wants you to wait patiently for him to answer your prayer, but he also wants you to wait expectantly. Have faith. Trust God to hear and to answer. When you wait expectantly, you show God that you believe his promises. You believe he’s going to keep his word.

When God doesn’t answer your prayers, you need to remember a couple very important truths. First, God is in control, and you’re not. He knows better what you need than you do. There is no mountain too tall that he can’t move it. There is no problem so big that he can’t solve it. There is no sorrow so deep he cannot soothe it. God is in control, and he has a plan.

The second thing you need to remember is that, whether or not you ever receive your answer, God will honor your patience — if not in this world then in eternity.

“I wait expectantly, trusting God to help, for he has promised” (Psalm 130:5

Proverbs 10:17

He who heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.
Discipline is not only important to us, but also to those who are influenced by our actions. So often we undervalue the impact of our personal decisions on others. But God has placed each of us in a circle of influence to be a blessing and a redemptive influence on those around us.

To choose what is foolish, to ignore godly correction, not only jeopardizes our own future, but also the future of others.
