HEALING

Our little home group met here again last night. Every week some one has been sick with bad colds, so it is that time of year again. It is an effort for me because my pain has slowly creeped up my back to my neck; but I enjoy being with such caring people.

I think that the hardest part of sickness is loneliness. That is why I visit people in the nursing home and that is why I value my family and my church groups so much because their love supports and encourages me.

Prayer is healing and renewing because through prayer we discover "life's hidden wholeness."
This is a quote of Thomas Merton a Trappist Monk. Yes, Rick, prayer does go inward and it is more about receiving than asking God to be Santa.
