True Healing

I don't know if the people over at Proverbs 31 Ministries knew that I would be reading Matthew 9 today (but God sure did).  If you haven't read our chapter for today, go do that ASAP...and then read this quick devotional:
Look at all of the healings performed by Jesus in Matthew chapter 9.  Jesus didn't just physically heal each of those people...His first focus was on their spiritual health, and this kind of healing can only come from Jesus' healing touch.  I just loved how the Proverbs 31 devotional said basically the same thing - to seek God first, to focus on our spiritual health first.  God can change what seems impossible.

I wanted to include the above link in today's post because I hope it brings encouragement to anyone who may have started this challenge with a real fire in their heart, but might not be keeping up with the daily reading because it IS hard to make this a new habit every day that you "make" time for.  But if your experience has been anything like mine so far - it's sooooooo worth it!!
