Emotional Recovery: Principles for an abundant life

Social media, as well as many TV reports, have talked a lot about this subject because psychic illness and inner chaos are in evidence. Anxious people, depression, burnout syndrome, panic syndrome, accelerated thinking syndrome... It seems that the world is out of control! The Doctor of doctors, two thousand years ago, raised His eyes, beheld the pain that was tearing people's hearts, and diagnosed: they were weary and scattered (Matt. 9: 36).

When we speak about distress alone, we include anxiety, agony, and anguish, but Jesus added that those individuals were weary. There is the physical tiredness, which goes away in a restful night of sleep, but the emotional tiredness is different, as it can evolve into something worse.

The way we deal with problems, frustrations, and day-to-day obligations can cause mental wear so great that it will lead to exhaustion. Jesus not only detected, but also showed, throughout His ministry, how He cares about our pains and afflictions and how He came to treat, heal, and recover us.

Throughout this book, I want to show that Jesus not only announced that the kingdom of heaven was at hand, but He also announced that it was time for the wounded to be healed and the sad to be comforted. That is, the time for transformation had come. So, my wish is that reading this may touch you in different ways: in your mind, in your heart, in your emotions, and the deep roots of despair, anguish, pain, and trauma.
