It is not an easy thing to find Pearls
When he searches for us, we are not always easy to find. Sometimes we hide behind our shame and guilt. Many times our chains keep us hidden.
Chains are an obvious symbol of imprisonment. In physical terms they restrict us, hold us down and back, and signify our captive state. In spiritual terms they do more or less the same. While many of us won’t experience physical chains, we’re by no means immune to the impact of spiritual chains which harm our spiritual growth. These kinds of shackles are just as unmissable and detrimental to our freedom because they affect our behaviour, our outlook and our faith.
Psalms 107:13-16 NLT
[13] “Lord, help!” they cried in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. [14] He led them from the darkness and deepest gloom; he snapped their chains. [15] Let them praise the Lord for his great love and for the wonderful things he has done for them. [16] For he broke down their prison gates of bronze; he cut apart their bars of iron.
What chains are holding you back?
