Wholeness is God’s default setting for each of us.

Love that!!!

In reply to Becky Keife. It is wonderful that we serve a God who desires our wholeness! And who is powerful enough to make it happen. Thanks for stopping by, Becky.

In reply to Mindy. I'm on the same page with you, Mindy. I'll keep praying for healing for others, too, but just leave the outcome with God. I've seen people lose their faith when they pray for healing, and it doesn't come in "time" and/or in ways they can see. I don't want that to happen to me.

Beautiful words here, Lisa. “Wholeness is God’s default setting for each of us.” Yes, yes! Thank you.

I have seen people healed and believe that God does heal (physically as well as spiritually) but don’t understand why some are healed on Earth and some are healed with a new body in Heaven. I continue to pray for people to be healed but know that God, in His infinite wisdom, holds our lives in His hands and have to choose to trust that His ways are higher than mine. Honest and thoughtful post!

In reply to Kelly Chripczuk. My prayers are with your friend and her family as they deal with such huge lifestyle changes. I really can't imagine all the changes that diabetes entails (and I hope I never have to know it personally). I'll also pray for you and the conversations you will have with your friend. Hard mysteries like that really work on developing a deeper faith....

What a wonderful conversation you started, Lisa. My friend’s son – the same age as our twins – was just diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes last week. I’m feeling the weight of that illness and life change for her and know we will have lots of tough conversations about how it is that illness and healing weaves its way through our lives and what it’s like to walk with those who carry extra burdens. I believe in healing, but with all things related to the divine mystery, realize that my knowing, my belief, is incomplete, my comprehension so very limited. Be blessed! and thanks for linking with #SmallWonder.

In reply to Betsy de Cruz. Chills reading this, Betsy! Such a miracle you experienced. I do believe! I love that you still hold on to that wonder, too. What a loving witness you are to the goodness of our God. Thanks for sharing this.

In reply to June. Aw, I really appreciate your encouragement, June. This means a lot to me. I wish I had more time too to hang out at other blogs and soak in the wise words that so many brothers and sisters share around the world. The whole internet thing is still a crazy ride for me. ha. Loving it. And I so agree with you about the great comments from other readers (including you!). You all add so much more grace and knowledge to every post.
