Any Other Way

Look at the chorus of the song "Any Other Way" by Tenth Avenue North:

'Cause it's not enough
it's not enough
just to say that we're okay
i need your hurt i need your pain
it's not love any other way

Now watch this video:

 

"Sometimes, in order to heal us, God has to hurt us." Whoa. Scaring me out of my shoes! Does it make you want to totally forget 'the whole Christianity thing'? I definitely makes me a little less willing. But the thing to notice is how TRUE that statement is.

For example, meet a normal person named Martha*. So let's say that the thing really separating Martha from God is money. Martha loves money, she worships money.

The problem comes in when she tries to find fulfillment in money. Martha is therefore, hurting. Though she may not know it. In order for Martha to be healed, God is going to have to take away Martha's unhealthy love for money. In this way, God is having to hurt Martha in order to heal her.

Now put yourself in Martha's shoes.

Where her obsession is money, then what is yours? What is it that thing that is standing in your way of a better relationship with God?
