A HEART THAT HAS EXPERIENCED HEALING
God knows hearts, he knows our thoughts, our attitudes and our character, therefore only he knows how to control them and knows what we need
Through the search in God we can find rest and calm for our hearts because only God can heal a broken heart
And when it is God who heals someone's heart, he prepares it for that person to also heal others through his experience, God is good and faithful!
In the bible we find strong testimonies that some men of God passed which God allowed to prepare them for his kingdom. One of them was the apostle Peter because he felt self-sufficient and Jesus Christ knew that he had to work on Peter's weakness. How did he do it? He began to work on his character and his condition when Jesus understood that the time had come to be crucified and began to speak to them on the Mount of Olives about what he had to go through but Peter said the following:
Matthew 26: 30-35
Peter answered, he said to him: Even if everyone is scandalized by you, I will never be scandalized. Jesus said to him: Truly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times. Peter said to him: Even if it is necessary for me to die with you, I will not deny you. And all the disciples said the same." (RVR1960)
Although all the disciples said the same, Jesus Christ focused on Peter and warned him that he would deny it before the rooster crowed three times because the Lord knew that it was Peter who had self-sufficiency in his heart and obviously he wanted him to depend not on his trust but on God.
It was really like this before the rooster crowed three times, Peter had already denied the Lord, which he cried with repentance and his heart was desolate because he had betrayed his Lord, but it was worth it because Peter learned his lesson and learned to depend on God in everything.
Only a heart that has experienced healing in its self-image, forgiveness for mistakes made, and has accepted itself as it is, can treat others with the same love and respect that it has experienced.
