The Wounded Healer

Jesus the Son of God, came to suffer and die for us. He went through all kinds of trial, attack, insult, betrayal, pain and emotional struggle, any form of human suffering that is known to men and came out victorious. that is why He is able to understand and comfort and heal those who are going through the same suffering. He is the wounded healer. Sometimes we ask God why we had to go through certain suffering and pain, now i'm quite certain that one of the reason and purpose is that we too may become a wounded healer. As we have been wounded and healed by Jesus, we can go out to heal those still in pain. "We can't lead others beyond where we are now." If we want to help others overcome certain problem we ourselves must overcome it first....
