Jeremiah 33 
I hated those moments when I would get a horrible wound from either a bike wreck or from sliding into a base and I would have to have peroxide on the painful area.  Wowzer.  I remember doing a little dance until the stinging would cool off.  I remember as a boy my mom blowing on the wound to cool it off.  I get the same picture as I read this chapter.  We have done something foolish like trying to ramp a bike without thinking through the outcome and then getting badly hurt.  It was clearly my fault and yet things were in place for the healing to happen.  I am laughing right now just thinking through some of my boyhood memories.  Jeremiah 33, we have done wrong and yet God says, "I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against ME!"  I will pour ointment on their wounds and blow on it and they will be restored.  "I will bring to it health and healing...and I will reveal to them an abundance of peace and truth.  Jesus goes the full distance to heal us friends.  The full distance!  By His wounds we are healed.
"I am a Bible Christian and if an archangel were to come and offer me some new truth, I'd ask him for a reference." -A.W.Tozer.  (haha)
