It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

Sometimes it seems that this world is becoming more angry by the minute. For an example of that -just spend a few minutes driving the freeways. A lot of angry drivers out there. This week I took a walk and heard a couple yelling at each other in the street. I offered up a little prayer for them. I've been on the receiving end of a look of hatred and it's incredibly painful.
I'm so glad to know that we have a heavenly Father who loves us. He desires to heal those broken places in our heart. Hopefully we can be channels of healing rather than passing that pain off on someone else. This is from The Way Of The Wild Heart by John Eldredge...
"The Father's healing comes to us in many ways - sometimes quite immediately, through healing prayer, other times over the course of many months as he speaks to our hearts, brings us gifts, opens our awareness of our heart and reawakens memories. Our part is to remain open to the fact that there is often a boy inside that needs a Father's love, to cultivate an awareness of the yearning in our hearts to be prized, and watch for the ways our Father is bringing his love to the young places in our hearts."
You are His beloved child.
