Scared Of Being Hurt Again?

Life has its painful chapters—moments that leave scars on our soul. We should never allow past hurt to write the future. Fear may whisper, “Don’t risk it again,” but faith declares, “God is still writing something beautiful.” With every new sunrise comes the invitation to believe again, love again, and hope again. Don’t let the voice of hurt stop you from embracing a future of hope.

Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” (TLB). God never leaves us in the ruins—He rebuilds, renews, and restores. Our future isn’t determined by the pain behind us, but by the promise ahead of us.

So lift your eyes. Pray with courage. Your best days aren’t behind—they’re waiting in the hands of a faithful God.
