Recuperate, Heal and Restore is a prayer for wholeness. I hope this prayer-poem inspires you today.
Today’s post is the twenty-first one in the #write28days challenge, in which I’m participating during the month of February 2021. Today’s prompt is “Recuperate,” and here is my prayer/poem.
Recuperate, Heal and Restore
Father God,
Help me recuperate
from the blows I’ve received
to my well-being in past
months and years.
Jarring changes
like concussions
sudden heartaches
like contusions
living deaths
like gangrene.
You are the physician
of my soul.
You probe your knife
with a deft hand
to invite new life
rather than harm.
You suture my wounds
with gentleness
and apply the balm
of Gilead.
Only you have access
to those broken places
inside me.
Only you can heal me
from hidden hurts.
Restore me not only
to the wholeness of shalom
but to the joy of my salvation.
Remind me to seek
comfort in your presence
rather than just
relief from my pain.
May I recuperate
heal
and be restored
for your glory
O Strength of my heart.
