why do scabs itch? you know, right when they are healing up, they start to itch... and its so annoying because you know that right when you go to scratch them, they'll start bleeding again! they just look like they are all healed, but they're not... i hate it...

i have a scab on my foot from ice skating last week. i've kept a band-aid on it for the last few days, and when i took it off it looked like it was healing quite nicely. and then last night it started to itch... and i wanted to scratch it so bad! but i didnt because i knew better. i didnt want to make it bleed again...

i hope you guys are catching on... its a lot like that with our spiritual lives... when we think we are "healed" in a certain area of our life, the itch comes for us to revisit it. we think its ok because we are "healed" but we're really not... and when we revisit it, it starts to bleed again... we just hurt ourselves and have to go through the healing process all over again... its not worth the scratch... leave the scab alone... dont do it... i'm trying not to...
