Healing
Healing is another beautiful word
but not one without battle scars.
Sometimes it comes limping or even crawling,
carrying old memories in trembling hands.
It knows tears.
It holds beauty differently.
It wears stitches,
has scar tissue,
and prayers whispered through clenched teeth.
Healing is not the absence of what happened.
It is learning that what happened
does not get the final word.
What happened in one moment does not
define a life completely.

And yes—
there are battle scars.
But there is also breath.
There is faith.
There is love that somehow survived.
Love reached out and took hope’s hand.
Jesus Christ carried scars as proof—
proof of healing.
They were part of the story of sacrifice,
of resurrection,
and of redemption.
Healing is a beautiful word.
It tells a story—your story.
