Surgery without a knife? Yes! Hebrews 4:12

Yes, I just did surgery on someone and I did not use a knife. The surgery involved the repair of a sister in the Lord that had incurred a terrible injury. The injury happened when one strong spirited Christian ran into her (also strong spirited Christian). It was an ugly accident and it almost cost the life of my sister-friend. Unbelievable things happen when we ask God for help, for grace and for truth to be manifest. The Bible says in Hebrews 4:12, "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." So, see, the Word is the scalpel, or knife, and it is quick, so quick that it hardly even brings much pain as it works. It repairs injuries in a hurry. Next time you are trying to repair an injury between two parties or between yourself and another, use the Word and use it in love. Jesus is the Word, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." and John 1:14 continues to show us more...."And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." Don't run from conflicts, get the Word-scalpel and the surgery will be a success. To God be the Glory!
