Proverbs 3:4-5 (NLT)
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths."
Faith to receive healing
Faith hasn't been feeling well for the past week. She has been getting tension headaches at the back of her head and perhaps due to nasal congestion. She has seen both Chinese and Western doctors, but the medicine hasn't helped much to alleviate her discomfort.
Anyway, I decided to fast for her today, and do my bible reading at the same time. I'm so excited and thankful after reading Matthew 8, because it speaks about the miraculous healing encounters of Jesus! The man with leprosy (vs.2), the Roman officer's young servant (vs. 6-13), Peter's mother-in-law (vs. 14-15) and the people who were demon-possessed... they were all healed by Jesus!
"This fulfilled the word of the Lord through Isaiah, who said, "He took our sicknesses and removed our diseases."" (Matt 8:17)
After praying, I received a SMS from Faith saying that she felt better! Thank you, Jesus, for answering our prayers!

Psalm 8:1-9
1O Lord, our Lord, the majesty of your name fills the earth!
Your glory is higher than the heavens
2You have taught children and nursing infants to give you praise.
They silence your enemies who were seeking revenge.
3When i look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers - the moon and the stars you have set in place -
4what are mortals that you should think of us, mere humans that you should care for us?
5For you made us only a little lower than God, and you crowned us with glory and honor.
6You put us in charge of everything you made, giving us authority over all things -
7the sheep and the cattle and all the wild animals,
8the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that swims the ocean currents.
