Mark 5:34
34 He said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in
peace, and be healed of your disease.’
Faith has made me well. I have not
really had a tough life. Yes, my parents got divorced when I was in high school
and I sure thought it was the end of the world then, but it wasn’t. I had faith and I was healed of my broken
heart. I went through the teenage angst
of not having a boyfriend and then the college rollercoaster ride of having a
boyfriend. Again a broken heart, but in different circumstances, but my faith
healed those broken pieces, too. I was
so fortunate to not have a family member that I knew die until I was 27 years
old. My great grandmother, Ma Scoggins, died in the spring of 1995; again my
heart was broken for myself and for my grandmother, dad, and aunt—and again God
healed it. Over the next few years there
were more deaths and a family feud that broke my heart, but in time, faith
triumphed again. My faith journey has not
been an easy one, as I have definitely raged and railed at God about various
things that did not work out the way I thought they should; however, I have
seen and felt God’s presence in my life.
I have had faith and it has made me well.
This song that I first heard on a
kid’s Psalty Christian Music tape has stuck with me in times of distress and
reminded me to have faith in my God. Listen to it here. http://mp3truck.net/play/WXBZaTZCOXpXQVk-103/psalty-i-cast-all-my-cares-upon-you-with.html
I cast all my cares upon you,
I lay all of my burdens down at
Your feet
And any time I don’t know what to do
I will cast all my cares upon
you.
