Everyday Guitar

Relationships that rock your world in the worst way are ones we want ejected from our memory and our playlist of heartache. But the pain of the past doesn’t have to define your future. Janet shared; “It’s been ten years since my abusive ex-fiancé sold my favorite guitar. He sold it on the day I left him. When I went to claim my belongings, he was proud that he had sold my guitar to a pawn shop. Luckily, I managed to track down the guy who bought it from the pawn shop. He was sweet, and gave it back to me for free, on condition that I joined him on his front porch to play guitar with him. We ended up sitting there on his porch for the rest of the afternoon playing music and talking.” He’s been Janet’s husband for nine years now.

With Jesus there’s redemption in all things. I know it might feel like you’re in control when you’re the one in control but surrendering control of your heart to God is where healing and redemption will bring freedom and hope…everyday.
