Asking for healing can be a difficult and vulnerable act, but it is also an act of faith and hope. When our loved ones are facing illness or struggles, it can be helpful to turn to a higher power for support. Prayer is a way to connect with that power and ask for the healing that we need.
May these words will bring you or the person you are praying for the strength and healing you are seeking.
