We all get hurt sometime, fall down, and get bruised along the journey. What would we do without Band-Aids? They protect our wound from getting infection, getting hit again and making it hurt more. You use them immediately after getting injured.
And so it is with life.
We are not meant to journey it alone.
We need Band-Aids to help us to heal, to protect us from harm, or lies
we can tell ourselves. I share with my
clients that we all need a handful of band aids- three to five people we can go
to when we are struggling, hurting and that we can share our joys, celebrate with. You see we can wear out one band aid if we
only have one…. becoming dependent on one to meet our needs, disappointed when
one has his own things they are dealing with and do not have the margin to
assist us. But, if we have a handful,
then we do not have to worry about being alone.
There is someone we can share our burden with, pray with, or just know
we are not alone. Band-Aids help heal.
Who are your Band-Aids?
Who are you a Band-Aid for?
