No human can bear a wounded spirit successfully; we weren't made to do so. We were created to dwell with God, and His Spirit fulfilled us. However, Adam ruined this relationship in the garden. Our world now hurts to the core. It is full of people who are dying inwardly and hide it behind laughter, a smile, and other frivolities. They don't want you to see the anguish they deal with when they close their eyes at night while lying upon their bed. They don't want you to see them slip away to the restroom by themselves, lean over the sink, and tell themselves to pull it together. They don't want you to see the disgust they feel at times nor hear what goes through their mind when they look in the mirror. Their souls are crying out, "Take me to God!". They try to drink it away, sex it away, smoke it away, carouse it away, but they are still empty!! The spirit of infirmity bows them over, just like the woman in the Bible. It rules their life, day in and day out. They can't shake it, so they learn to live with it. "The pain of changing seems to outweigh the pain of remaining the same."

There is an answer, there is a cure out there, there is a deliverer!! His name is Jesus and it's more than just you making a profession of faith and accepting. He has a power that He can and will pour into your soul if you allow Him to do so. It is called the Baptism of the Holy Ghost! The idea that you just have to "have faith", totally accept it without any undeniable proof, did not come from the Bible. People often forget, or willingly overlook, that God proved himself to people from the beginning to the end of the Scriptures. As a mater of fact, He recorded those words in the Old Testament.
