Wednesday, December 30 — Psalm 149
Zechariah 13:7–14:21; Malachi 1; Revelation 21:9–22:7
He heals the broken-hearted, and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3
When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. Matthew 8:16 (NIV)
Mighty Healer, we live in a world of great pain. Injustice, war, disaster, disease, selfishness, and hard-heartedness inflict injuries only you can heal. May your love soothe all wounded bodies and souls and may your example of compassion inspire us to offer that same love to those in distress. Amen.
