Application steps:

What past experiences in your life need the covering of God’s healing love? Right now, make the decision to face and deal with these experiences in God’s timing and God’s way.

Reflection points:

Why do we bury hurt and pain?

With what have you tried to "cover" the painful parts of your life?

Did it work? Why? Why not?

What does it really mean to allow God’s love to cover the sin and pain in your life?

What is the first step or action that you need to take in the process of allowing God to heal the broken places?

How do you think this decision will affect your daily life?

Power verses:

Psalm 36:7 God, your love is so precious! You protect people as a bird protects her young under her wings. (ICB)
