Do you have any piercings? I do. Most people would be surprised to hear that. "Bob? Piercings? No!" But it's true. Only a few people know about them. Even fewer have actually seen them, but they exist.
My piercings are more hard core than most. Most people have piercings in their eyebrows, lips, noses, tongues, nipples, belly buttons or ears. Not me. Those are for sissies. Try having your HEART pierced sometime!
Piercings of the heart are usually involuntary. They are inflicted upon us rather than obtained during an appointment. Their initial "installation" is extremely painful and , in some cases, the pain of getting them never really goes away.
My wife's sister lost her husband to cancer. Her heart was pierced in a major way this past weekend when he died. Yet the first news he had pancreatic cancer was worse, I think, than his actual death.
My former boss walked into a room this past weekend and found his brother, dead. Another piercing that very few will ever see. He's too proud to let anyone have a look at THAT piercing.
Have you had your heart pierced?
Heart piercings are basically invisible. All we can see is symptoms as even seeing those is rare. Ironically, the only way to ease the pain from the piercing is to reveal them to someone else.
Showing our heart piercings to someone who has no piercings themselves seldom results in any healing. Only someone else who has been pierced can truly understand.
Try revealing your heart piercings to Jesus sometime, if you're looking for a cure that is. He's been pierced . . . in His wrists, feet and side.
"And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn." - Zechariah 12:10
The only one who can truly heal your heart is Jesus. Trust in Him. Offer your aching heart to Him. But be prepared. The resulting feeling, having been healed, is amazing.
