Some Things Never Change

Isaiah 53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought up peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.

Today the phrase "by his wounds we are healed" has been running through my mind.  I think that is because I have been convicted about my own issues that continue to creep back into places I do not want them.  Then I feel guilty and frustrated because they are something that I feel like should be taken care of already.  I have turned them over to God and yet find myself continuing with them on my own.  Sometimes I think we need to have an environmental change or a change in personnel within our walk.  I am reminded to think about where I spend my time, with whom I spend my time, and what I spend my time doing.  For some reason I think that those kinds of reflection only need to happen when you are a kid, but the reality is that we spend a lifetime adjusting our lives to put ourselves in the best possible place to see/hear/reflect Jesus.
