Does God actually care about the wound I cannot stop carrying?

Some hurts do not fade with time. You have prayed, you have tried to move on, and still the same ache sits in your chest. It is not weakness. It is not a lack of faith. It is what a real wound does. And God does not look at yours from a distance.

"He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds."

- Psalm 147:3 (KJV)

Find somewhere quiet today, even two minutes in your car or bathroom before 9am. Hold the specific name or moment that still stings and say out loud: 'God, I cannot fix this. I hand it to you.' Then leave it there. You can come back tomorrow, but leave it just for today.

Father, this hurt is still real and I am tired of carrying it. I believe you see exactly where it is. Heal what I cannot heal in myself, and hold what I cannot hold alone. Amen.
