EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
 One thing is certain, there is brokenness in our world in different ways;
broken minds, broken hearts, broken relationships, broken lives, and more.
Our God is a relational God, and one of His chief desires is to grow His relationship with humanity through regular communication and relieve the brokenhearted with His love.
If we aren’t broken now, praise God! But…we have most probably experienced being broken at some point or another in our lives.
 God tells us we can’t live close to Him and not experience some healing. We all want that, don’t we?
Healing is important. It’s true that we have not because we ask not.
 “Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you.”
(Jeremiah 29:12)
We can receive the healing that flows naturally from God’s presence whether we seek it or not, that’s a fact. Do you realize there is so much more available to you, though, if you’d only ask?
The first step I’ve found in healing is to live close to God. The closer I am to God, the more He reveals to me. He talks to me through His Word. When I ask Him to guide me with eyes wide open and wisdom in my heart, He illuminates me EVERY  S I N G L E time!
When the time is right, which is any time we find a need for healing in our lives, God wants us to ask Him for that specific healing-and we pray He will get the glory for it. Healing from a brokenness of any type whether it’s in us or other people, our healing from disease, healing from physical or emotional damage, or an overall healing from all of the mentioned, God deserves the glory. He knows where our deliverance comes from.
The healing may be quick, or it may be a process and we must be ok with whatever it is. God determines that and that is His that will be done.
Nothing is more powerful than knowing we can ask God for anything while we are walking in His presence. May this speak to your heart today ever so deeply as I can share God wants us to communicate our needs to Him.
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.” (1Thessalonians 5:16-18)
