The Healing Formula: The Cure for Personal Suffering

Introduction

You may be a young person who has been “left out” in life. As a child you were never chosen to be on the team. As a teenager you were not a part of the peer group you wanted to associate with. You may have even been ridiculed or humiliated in some way. Your ego and self-esteem have been hurt and you feel depressed and are in need of emotional healing. You may have turned to alcohol or drugs to help ease the hurting. You need real healing and not just a cover of the symptoms.

You may be a mother or father who has lost a child, or a man or woman who has lost your spouse.

You may be a military veteran who suffered physical and emotional wounds during your time of service to your country. You may be active in your military service now and are experiencing the depression and emotional distress of being separated from loved ones.

You may be a young man or woman who is suffering from cancer or other serious illness and it has brought you to the depths of despair. You are in need of emotional healing as well as physical healing. You need the remedy that will heal the actual injury or illness and not just address the symptoms.

You may be an older woman who has been criticized by co-workers or even people in your church and have suffered deep emotional injury. You need emotional healing. You don’t need just the things of the world that will help make you “feel better”. You need real healing of the real problem.

You may be an older man who has been laid off of your job. Your ego has suffered injury and your role as a husband and father is suffering as a result. Your self-esteem may be injured and you feel depressed and even angry with the world in general. You are in need of emotional healing. The temporary remedies of the world will only mask the symptoms. You need real healing of the real problem.

You may be a part of a local church congregation that is experiencing bickering, disagreement, and even hostility among its membership. The fellowship factor is damaged or even lost and is in dire need of healing in order to restore the loving Christian atmosphere that should be characteristic of any local church fellowship. The worldly remedies may temporarily cover the real issues, but this local church is in need of real healing for the real problem.

You may be a mature Christian, even a pastor or church leader, or you may be someone who knows little or nothing about Jesus Christ. Regardless of your position in life, you have needed, need now, or will need emotional healing.

The Healing Formula can work for you. Whether it is an individual or a group, anyone old enough to experience emotional distress is in need of emotional healing. It is simply part of human nature to feel depressed, distressed, lonely, sad, bitter, angry, and altogether emotionally distraught at some point in life. It may be something as simple as having your feelings hurt, or something as serious as losing your closest loved one, by death or separation such as divorce. Every individual and group has suffered, is suffering, or will suffer some sort of emotional injury and distress. There will be some kind of emotional distress that will take place in every individual’s or group’s life, simply because we are human beings. As human beings we require the power of our creator and His perfect Healing Formula to heal us from our emotional illnesses and injuries. Jesus Christ, the perfect Son of God, is the answer.
