Each Tuesday into June, I will be praying through a portion of Psalm 23.
You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. – Psalm 23:5
There are days when I feel beaten down, left by the side of road. People pass by, but no one extends a hand to help. Then I look up and see you dear Lord Jesus. Hope radiates from your face. Your strong arms lift me up and carry me to a place of healing and restoration. Oil soothes my wounds and softens my hardened flesh. You nourish me, fill my soul to overflowing. My strength slowly returns under your care.

Amen. Chris, this series about praying through the verses of Psalm 23 has been a blessing to read. God’s grace and peace radiates outward with each testament.
Thanks for reading. Blessings.
Chris, I appreciate how you illustrate spiritual healing as a gradual process–not unlike its physical counterpart. Yes, there are those who are healed instantly, but most of us are healed, by God’s grace, over time. Blessings!
Thank you for sharing that David. Blessings.
