“Hurt people hurt people” is more than a clever phrase; it’s a sad truth. Hurt people hurt others because they themselves have been hurt. And each one of us has been hurt to one degree or another. As that damage causes us to become defensive and self-protective, we may lash out at others. Hurting becomes a vicious cycle. But God can help us break that cycle. Hope that we will see more clearly how God can use our wounding experiences for good. Hope that our scars will one day sing the praises of our living and loving Savior, even as we embrace the reality of choice, change, and transformation. Hope that sees in the fragments of broken lives the reflection and triumph of Jesus's empty tomb. -- amazon com
