On one of my FIRST trips on my brand-new, blue Schwinn bicycle, I made it ALL the way out of the driveway and turned left down the street.
But as I reached the corner and started to turn right, I hit a loose patch of gravel and fell down… HARD!
OUCH!!!
My injury wasn’t really that bad. But all I could remember was how much it HURT!
I decided to skip swimming lessons for two weeks because I was afraid the water might STING my scab.
My mom told me I was just being a baby. She assured me that I was fine and that I was missing out on all the FUN.
(I didn’t believe her.)
I guess I was just AFRAID of being hurt again. Now, I can look back and laugh at how silly I was.
We’ve all been through stuff that’s left a MARK on us. Some of us have FRESH hurts and some of us have SCABS that are finally starting to heal over.
But, many of us still have old SCARS that remind us of the pain! The enemy would be SO satisfied if he could just keep us on the sidelines of life, nursing our PAST wounds.
Let’s not miss any of the blessings that God has for us, today, just because we’re afraid of getting HURT!
We are mighty WARRIOR Women of God! NO fear here!
We MAY fall down again and there MIGHT be other scars. But, at least we’ll have a GREAT story to tell!
