Healing


Isaiah 40:29-31          New English Translation

29 He gives strength to those who are tired;

to the ones who lack power, he gives renewed energy.

30 Even youths get tired and weary;

even strong young men clumsily stumble.

31 But those who wait for the Lord’s help find renewed strength;

they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings,

they run without growing weary,

they walk without getting tired.

 

God heals for His purpose and not to live by natural energy

He not only heals the spirit entirely but also preserves

His power is sufficiently made perfect in my weakness

To only live for His Glory: To obey, in love, and serve
