The ideals of freedom and justice serve as the bedrock of America, as beautifully expressed in the Declaration of Independence and safeguarded by the Constitution. The journey toward fully realizing these ideals has often been fraught with difficulties for African Americans. Generations have courageously fought for equality and have made tremendous sacrifices along the way. While the civil rights movement made significant strides against unjust systems, we must also focus on the vital work of emotional and psychological healing. Even as we celebrate the freedoms we enjoy today; we must acknowledge and address the deep-rooted scars left by our history. Others have received the compassion they need to grieve after experiencing trauma, yet the pain of Black Americans has often gone unrecognized. For centuries, living in the United States, we have endured mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual hardships. The shadows of slavery and the enduring impact of Jim Crow and systemic racism have left us with wounds that have yet to heal. We need hope most-the kind that comes from a loving God who desires a personal relationship with us. The Bible teaches us that Jesus is compassionate and truly understands our struggles. Hebrews 4:15 (KJV) reminds us, "For we have not a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feeling." This understanding and compassion can guide us toward healing and redemption.
