Wounds that turns into scars

I hate getting hurt. If you know me and how I am able to endure childbirth with no painkillers, then you will know that I am not the regular wimpy kid.

Today, I was trying to save a remote control from falling and ended up having the remote control slicing me in the process. A 1.2 inch cut!! In return for the good will of trying to save it, I got injured myself. And it's not just a small cut, there was blood!!!! Ok, Ok, so I am a Drama Queen but I have a good reason for this. I have sensitive skin and with age catching up, I don't heal that well. And most of my wounds, even small ones, ended up in scars. Sigh, just a bit upset because each time I look at my hand, the scars reminds me of the unfair returns of doing good ending up being the most hurt/wounded. And there's no cure for it... I have to carry the scar for life...

Boo hoo hoo.... but this wont deter me from doing good.... perhaps these are challenges that God lay upon my path to help me grow and build my character.

So help me, God, and all the good people with scars, to a speedy healing and recovery.  Amen.

“It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.” ― Rose Kennedy



“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”
