Healing Psychological Trauma
The event that causes you trauma in the present is itself in the past, but you continue to react to triggers in the present as if you are in danger now. According to psychiatrist Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score, it doesn’t help to dismiss the reality of the person’s life, or simply give them a pill to take away the pain. What does work and where you can find solutions to heal the wounds you are carrying inside yourself is exactly what Jesus offered to every soul He met. ===

Wednesday: The Revelation of Jesus
Daily Lesson for Wednesday 30th of October 2024
Read John 4:16-24. What did Jesus do to show this woman that He knew her deepest secrets, and how did she respond?
The light was too blinding to look at directly. While recognizing Jesus as a prophet, the woman practices avoidance again. She asks Jesus a question of religious controversy between Jews and Samaritans—the proper place to worship.
In response, Jesus pointed out that the Samaritans did not know what they worshiped. Their worship was a synthesis of Judaism and paganism. The Jews worshiped the God who reveals Himself—another important admission for a Samaritan.

Worship of the true God is not tied to a place. The discussion, therefore, about a place of worship was irrelevant to the conversation. For God is spirit, and those who worship Him must do so in spirit and in truth. The woman accepted the plain truth conveyed by Jesus and was ready for more.
Read John 4:25-26. How did Jesus reveal His identity to her?
In all four Gospels, this is the only passage before His trial in which Jesus plainly stated to someone that He was the Messiah. And He did it not to some large crowd or important personage but to an unnamed Samaritan woman, alone, at Jacob’s well. He is interested in any lonely soul who feels separated.
And so to this woman, who not only was from a foreign culture but also was not of the highest moral character, Jesus openly reveals who He is. And, having revealed to her His knowledge of her darkest secrets, He also gave this woman a great reason to believe in Him, as well.

What should this story tell us about why the gospel needs to break down the barriers that we humans create with each other? |
