V is for Vulnerary

04/26/2011

Today, we think about ourselves.

Today, we think about vulnerability.

We want to be authentic.

To be just us.

To heal the wounds and be able to trust again and be silly if we want to and not be insecure and not fear possibilities.

Heal.

Restore.

Grow.

Time heal wounds — Β not just any time though.

But time spent with the Lord.

But time spent appreciating and serving others.

But time spent planting the seeds of future harvests.

Yes, today we are thinking about ourselves even though we are thinking beyond ourselves for it is in this way we heal fastest so we can be vulnerable again and be authentic again and love some more again and enjoy life again.

Vulnerary.

VULNERARY is a remedy used in healing or treating of wounds.

Be Okay, Okay?

      Glad that you are touched. I tried to cocoon myself when I was in pain but it didn’t protect me because it is within me. Thankful the Lord get me out. I think He wants me to be a butterfly — free and beautiful no matter how fleeting my stay in the world is. Hugggs and flutter with gladness in your heart πŸ™‚

    I do want to be authentic! It should be so easy. When I’m not, I think I only fail myself. But I let down others. Being myself, should benefit others. Authentically true and honest.


  10. And your VULNERARY words are!


  11. Rea, I love this! “To heal the wounds and be able to trust again and be silly if we want to and not be insecure and not fear possibilities.” That is what our Lord does for us. Thank you for encouraging us to be vulnerable, to risk all for Him and for others, knowing if we get hurt again He will heal again. Peace, Linda

    But time spent appreciating and serving others.

    These are great words of wisdom!

    Thank you so much for this post!

    Love,
    Theresa
