The Wall Around Your Heart – How Jesus Heals You When Others Hurt You
Family members hurt us. Friends betray us. Fellow Christians deceive us. But Jesus provides a path through the pain―the Lord’s Prayer.
In The Wall Around Your Heart, Mary DeMuth shows you that you can reach wholeness and healing in the aftermath of painful relationships by following the road map of the Lord’s Prayer. You’ll walk through story after story of hurt people who are led through biblical truth into amazing, life-sustaining, joyful growth.
Allow God to access the wall around your heart. Dare to say,“Tear down the bricks, Lord, whatever it takes.” Pray first. Ask for bravery―for yourself and for others. Risk engaging despite your hurt. Seek the shelter of Jesus. You don’t have to resign yourself to your wounds! You can rise above the pain. You’ll usher in a new life―an openhearted way of relating to others that expands the kingdom of God. In the process, you’ll draw closer to Jesus, be healed, and become an agent of healing to others.
About Mary DeMuth (Dallas, Texas Author)
If you met Mary DeMuth today, her joy would confuse you. Who she has become in light of tragedy is a testimony of Jesus’s ability to transform a broken life. A child of three divorces, a victim of sexual assault at a young age, with a father who died when she was ten, Mary wanted to end her life in her teens. In the tenth grade, she heard about Jesus, and she knew she wanted to chase after Him for the rest of her life. Thankfully, He chased her.
Mary is the author of more than thirty books, including her latest: Worth Living: How God’s Wild Love Makes You Worthy (Baker 2016) and her upcoming devotional Jesus Every Day (Harvest House 2017). She has spoken around the world about God’s ability to re-story a life, bringing needed freedom to her audiences. She’s been on the 700 Club and Huntley Street, and she’s spoken in Munich, Johannesburg, Port au Prince, Geneva and Monte Carlo, and planted a church with her family in southern France. She mentors writers around the world through booklaunchmentor.com.
Her best work? Being a mom to three amazing young adults and the wife of 26 years to Patrick. She makes her home in Dallas alongside her husband, one aloof cat, and an energetic chocolate lab. Find out more at marydemuth.com.
