Come quickly to help me,
O Lord my savior.
LUKE 18:40-43 (NLT)
When Jesus heard him, he stopped and ordered that the man be brought to him. As the man came near, Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?”
“Lord,” he said, “I want to see!”
And Jesus said, “All right, receive your sight! Your faith has healed you.” Instantly the man could see, and he followed Jesus, praising God. And all who saw it praised God, too.

What are the alternatives to looking to the Lord and waiting for his healing? If we wait for him, does that mean we ignore available medical treatments?
PRAYER
Dear Lord, I wait on your promises to heal and restore those areas of my being that need your touch. In your timing, I will receive what you desire to give me. Make my life a witness of your work in me. Thank you for being the faith for me, Jesus, when I cannot see to believe. Today I glorify you. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
