Healing

Mary’s Monday Musings to Quilt Encouragement
Healing

A simple cut seems like a little thing, but it can hurt and continue to aggravate long past when it seems such a small thing should bother us. Whenever something goes amiss in the way our body functions, we have a choice. A cut, a bruise, or things much more complicated and dismaying can set off a lot of unhappy, negative, or fearful thoughts. We may not have a lot of control over some of our ailments, but we can force our thoughts to consider the amazing built-in capacity of the human body to fix itself. We can ask God to lead us to the proper people to give us a healing boost and thank Him for all the ways He has blessed our well-being in the past as we present the current need to Him for His healing touch. God isn’t too preoccupied with all the issues of the world to care about us and our needs. As humans, we don’t always understand, and our minds may be baffled, but we can determine to set our hearts on God, believe in His goodness and ask Him to envelop us in His magnificent love, come what may. Easier said than done, but He is faithful to respond to the needy heart in the best way for eternal good even when our hearts and minds cry out in misery or despair. We can instruct our souls to trust God in-spite of our problems.
