2. Our scars talk for us. The guy in the Jesus story above did not ask for help verbally, but his body screamed for help. He was living where sick people hang out when they have nowhere else to go. Sometimes our bodies get fed up and ask for help even when we are too stubborn. Depression can talk for us, so can other things like cancer, diabetes, addiction, or weight gain. Our bodies and our scars talk, but paying attention is not easy.
When was the last time you listened to your scars? They are telling you a story of your resilience, your strength, your bad-assery. You have already faced so much and you can overcome the next thing, no matter what you may feel or no matter what you may face. Remember: Healing is possible for you.
