Flesh Wounds

Get up, rub some dirt in it and lets go!

It’s just a scratch! (Tis) 

It’s only a flesh wound!

That’ll buff right out!

Walk it off!

You’ll live!

Are you just hurt or are you injured?

Oh! Do you want a Band-Aid?

Just got nicked!

Boy…Get Up!

Pain is temporary, pride is forever!

Shake it off!

Tough times don’t last; tough people do!!

Scars are just tattoos with better stories!

My grief is beyond healing; my heart is broken. Listen to the weeping of my people; it can be heard all across the land. “Has the Lord abandoned Jerusalem?” the people ask. “Is her King no longer there?”

“Oh, why have they provoked my anger with their carved idols and their worthless foreign gods?” says the Lord.

“The harvest is finished, and the summer is gone,” the people cry, “yet we are not saved!”

I hurt with the hurt of my people. I mourn and am overcome with grief. Is there no medicine in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why is there no healing for the wounds of my people?

Jeremiah 8:18-23 (NLT)

There are no non-life-threatening wounds!

Why do you protest your punishment—this wound that has no cure? I have had to punish you because your sins are many and your guilt is great. “But all who devour you will be devoured, and all your enemies will be sent into exile. All who plunder you will be plundered, and all who attack you will be attacked. I will give you back your health and heal your wounds,” says the Lord. Jeremiah 30:15-17a (NLT)
