You can’t eat your way to inner peace. The only way to truly find it is to step out from behind all your disguises.
God sees through all my disguises. He knows who I really am. Yet He loves me anyway. God invites me to continually turn aside from all rebellion and to let the risen Jesus heal me, lead me from within, (Colossians 1:27) and make me whole. What an amazing opportunity He offers all of us humans!
By Christ’s wounds we are offered true healing. “We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has on Him the iniquity of us all.” (Isaiah 53:5-6) God invites us to come out of the darkness of our hiding places and “into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9) “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters” (1 John 3:16).
Jesus is all around us. All we need to do is to watch and listen for Him and to open wide our heart to His presence and healing.
