Let's lift up Dweryall seeking guidance and restoration in marriage. Trusting Jesus for wisdom and comfort. "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matt 11:28). Praying for strength and faithfulness in this storm. In Jesus' name! 
Let's lift up 
Let's lift up 
When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
—Matthew 8:16-17 (KJV)
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
How does Jesus feel about us when we feel tormented by evil and unfairness? Does he really long to touch our broken bodies when we are sick? Look two places and you will know the answer. First, look at him in the dusk of early evening touching the untouchable and you'll know. Second, look to the cross and see him in anguish so we can be confident that he knows and cares. But, there is a third place to look. Look to the future when we will see him, and every tear will be dried from our eyes and we will share in his glory. Here we trust in his grace and know it only in parts and pieces, but The Day will come when we will know fully the words of Matthew 8:16-17 in our own immortal bodies (1 Corinthians 13:9-12; 1 Corinthians 15:35-58).
