The Balm of Gilead

In January 2023, Monte and I spent a month in Asia Pacific Theological Seminary (APTS). 

One night we were having dinner with our spiritual parents and N. N had made her way from another part of the Philippines to APTS.

N was not well. Travelling to APTS was gruelling. She expressed pain in her hand and arm region. We prayed together.

When I next saw N again. She related that the pain was gone. We were elated. Praise be to God!

The power of God is real. God is our great physician. He heals and restores us. The healing power of God floods through our broken bodies. His merciful love prevails.

When any opportunity to pray arises, we pray. We believe God for a miracle. God shows Himself as mighty healer. The balm of Gilead cruises through our broken bodies.

We honour You. We lift Your name up high. We marvel at Your wonderful work. We see Your glory. We know Your grace.
