The Lizards

For those who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness, will rise with healing in his wings.  And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves led out to pasture.  Malachi 4:2

I have always been fascinated with reptiles that can regenerate their tails, when damaged.  These species also possess a mechanism for breaking off their original tail(s) when in danger or grasped by an enemy.

Much like the lizard’s tail, He who created our bodies, minds, and souls can certainly repair and restore us too. 

A relationship with God is a powerful source of healing because it connects us with our Creator.  In fact, God loves us so much that he allowed his Son to suffer and die in our place.

He promises us that in eternity, we will all be fully healed and made whole again.

Picking Up The Pieces

He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds.  Psalm 147:3

At such an early age, our children are accident prone and tend to have the usual scrapes and bruises from playing hard.  There are not too many minor injuries that cannot be healed by a Band-Aid, but just thinking about the way we as parents tend to our children’s wounds is much the same way that God tends to ours as well.

God actually tends to our physical wounds and pains as well as the emotions blows to our souls.  There is no sickness, injury, or pain that the Great Physician cannot heal. 

When God performs His healing in our lives, we find joy and others will rejoice in our healing.

Thanks be to God!!
