Healing

[Chad]

Today's Devotional - June 8 & 9

Healing

Sometimes a family pet may stop eating and spend an unusual amount of time sleeping or resting. Our tendency is to make them better with remedies. But animals seem to know instinctively that the first thing, often the best thing, to do is to rest and wait for healing to come naturally.

I'm not suggesting that we shouldn't take our pet to the vet -- rather, that we might imitate them when we are feeling out of sorts. Instead of trying to "fix" our problem with activity, perhaps we need to rest -- to grow quiet enough to hear God's still, small voice speaking to our heart.

Find restoration on the road to new life. Discover God's repose … on Route 66.

Please clarify your reference to Route 66. Thanks.

Wow! This hit me at just the right time. I'm dealing with a lot of problems that I can't fix, and I often find myself occupying myself and mind with activities, games, and things to get my mind off my problems.
Thank you so much, Chad, for sharing this.

I posted this before !

But i found if something seems to be hard or impossible for me to fix /

i go into my back yard and starting singing praise songs to Him 1 I make them up as I sing 1 Soon the problems of life ,no longer have any meaning !
But every time He fixes it ! '

God really just wants a relationship with us ! He concerned about every part of our lives and wants us happy ! wants us having the victory !

My little girls kitty died once ! some might think He not going to be concerned about a kitty ? But He is concerned about anything that makes us happy or sad !
think about it ? Do we as Dads and Moms care about what our kids care about ?
He the Best Father ever and He too has Feelings !

Her and I laid hands on that dead cat and it took a little while ? But it came back !

I did pray under my breathe after we had prayed ! That God would put life back in the cat so my little girl would have more Faith in HIM !

But it back fired ! The kids at her school mocked her and made fun of Her and now she will not go too church or talk about the Lord or the Bible !

I still stand in Faith ! she will accept MY LORD JESUS CHRIST ! And know Him as Father with great faith !
