Wounds Lead Us to Rely on God’s Power
Long before the coronavirus sent us urgently searching for vaccines and treatments, for ventilators and masks, people often told me that they were unable to slay the giants in their lives because of their limitations, their losses, their wounds. They felt inhibited, impaired, and impeded from being the kind of conqueror God calls each of us to be. While the type of wounding may vary with each individual, the lingering effects are often similar: fear, doubt, anxiety, depression, worry, anger, and uncertainty.
With the advent of the pandemic, new fears trigger old traumatic reactions. We don’t know if we will remain healthy, if our loved ones will recover, if we will have enough money, if we can continue to live in our present homes. Our bodies fight exhaustion as depression and anxiety take their toll. We feel consumed by the ever-churning sensationalism of the 24/7 news cycle, afraid to ignore it for long but equally terrified to keep checking.
No one has escaped the pain, suffering, discomfort, and inconvenience caused by COVID-19. Regardless of our age, where we live, our level of education and income, our race and cultural ethnicity, whether Christian or atheist, no human being has escaped feeling the impact of the pandemic.
Similarly, all of us have wounds, including followers of Jesus. But the crucial difference for believers is that our wounds lead us to rely on God’s power and not our own. We discover that our injuries, wounds, and scars become prisms facilitating and magnifying what the Lord can do through our lives. They can even become beacons showing others the majesty and magnificence of supernatural healing and spiritual wholeness. When we experience what we cannot do for ourselves—what no human being can do for us—then everyone around us sees God at work in our lives. Our humility keeps us tethered to God’s healing power in us and through us!
