And a sword [of deep sorrow] will pierce through your own soul—so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.” Luke 2:35

Pierce (of a sharp-pointed object) go into or through (something):
Pierce (34 instances in 12 translations) Pierced-through (1 instance in 1 translation) Pierces (10 instances in 8 translations)
The word pierce is a word that can bring pain. The pain can be intense at the point of entry. Does that pain get your attention for a moment? Or does it make a significant impact on your life?
I think we have varied results. When our hearts are pierced. It’s not the wound that makes us grow it’s the healing.
Most of the time when the heart has been pierced it’s at the hands of another, or a circumstance that moves our emotional soul.
When we speak about our emotional soul my pierced heart grieved as I found myself in the book of John 19 (36:37).
It’s such a heartache moment. And yet such a beautiful love story. A story that has healed many troubled souls. It's a gift for all of humanity, It's a gift of hope for our future.
This gift is has been given to each man, woman, and child. It's a love far greater than any one person can fully understand.
For without love, and without hope. Life would be dark, it would be void. We would leave us a life of bleak existence with no promise of tomorrow.
As our Savior exhaled His last breath. His bruised body was pierced at the hands of another. And as the last drop of His blood fell, His prophecy was fulfilled. At that point in time, He gave us every ounce of himself just to prove His love...
A love that speaks healing, it’s a love that speaks hope, it’s an amazing gift of love that is ours for eternity.
It’s Him, it’s always Him
I thank God for the gift of Him!
“Not one of his bones will be broken.” And again, another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they have pierced.” John 19 36:37
For your arrows pierce me, and your hand presses me down. Psalm 38:2
“So, be careful! God's message to us is alive and powerful. It is like a sword that has two sharp edges. Even more than a sword, God's message goes very deep into us. It cuts between our soul and our spirit. It is like a sharp knife that can cut deep into our bodies between our bones. God's message shows what we are really thinking. It shows what we really want. There is nothing in the whole world that can hide from God. He sees everything clearly and he knows everything. We will have to explain to him everything that we have done during our lives.”Hebrews 4:12-13 EASY
