God is in the business of removing stones of past hurts and stones of lies that are deeply embedded in hearts and minds.
A life changing event God used in my life was when I became a mother. God used that groundbreaking time to begin to remove my stone of lies. One big hard stone was the lie that went like…”You’ll always be a worrier. You can’t change.” I didn’t want our boys to grow up learning from me how to be a worry-wart. One day I heard someone say that in order to recognize a lie you need to know the truth. I wanted to know the truth from God’s perspective. I made the groundbreaking decision to begin studying the Bible. Piece by piece, little by little, God used His Word to remove the lies of the enemy with the truth of His Word. I’m still being transformed and not finished. But now when I begin to fret or gasp I’m reminded to run to God’s Word, because God can’t lie. His truth gives comfort and guidance in the middle of hurts and confusion. No stone is too hard or too deep for God to blast and remove over time. Cling to Him. Get to know Him more fully. He is Our Stone Remover.
And they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. Mark 16:3-4
