From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Wednesday, April 2, 2025 – Healing the Wounds Within the Family

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

It is a truth we often carry silently: some of the deepest wounds we experience come not from strangers, but from those within our own families. Harsh words, unmet expectations, betrayals, and absence can leave scars that we try to cover but never truly forget. Yet even in this pain, there is hope—for God is the Healer of broken hearts and broken homes.

In Colossians 3:13, we are instructed, “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” These words are not always easy to follow, especially when the hurt runs deep. But they are necessary if we are to experience the peace and unity God desires for our families.

Forgiveness is not about forgetting the offense or pretending it never happened. It is about releasing the burden of bitterness and allowing God to bring restoration. Sometimes that healing comes through conversation. Other times, it begins with prayer and time. But it must begin—with you, with me, with all who seek to walk in obedience to Christ.

If your family bears wounds, ask God today to soften hearts, to open the door for reconciliation, and to bring His healing presence into every relationship. What is impossible for man is always possible with God.

In grace and truth,
Brother Jesse
