The BODY of Christ- Overcoming Chronic Pain & Illness

Do not let the fear, the sorrow or weight of pain and suffering cripple you and keep you from living the life God has for you!

Push through the pain, relying not on your own strength or abilities, but on the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit that lives in you to do the impossible! When you give your life over to God, trust in Him and accept His Son, Jesus, as your Lord and savior, He enables you to live above your circumstances; living a life of joy and freedom despite the challenges you face daily.

Keep your eyes on Jesus and you will see that the love and blessings of God far outway the troubles, hardship and trials of this world!

Does all of this sound foreign to you? Maybe you have not given your life over to God or met your Heavenly Father, surrendered to His will or received His love, peace, joy, grace, mercy and forgiveness!

Maybe you have not experienced the new life and transformation that happens within us when we make that choice to trust Him with all our heart, mind, soul and body! Maybe you have not recognized or known Him as the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, your brother and your friend.

I invite you to search out this free gift to all!!! Allow God to be first in your life and see how redeems us from death and gives us New Life, and Eternal Salvation! Embrace His love and freedom from sin! Allow Him to touch and heal the broken places in your heart, to mend each and every shattered piece from your past and restore every area of your life, making it better than you ever imagined, and bribg you to a place of redemption and glory only found in Him!!!

The LORD will align our will with His, perfect His plan for our lives!

Prayer of Salvation:
Heavenly Father, today, I give to you every part of me. I surrender my will to yours, and choose to believe and trust in You. I acknowledge my sin and need for a savior, and I accept Jesus Christ as The Lord of my life. I believe that He took my place, died on the cross as the One true sacrifice for my sin and the redemption of my soul! I believe that on the third day he rose to life again, overcame death and defeated the enemy! Today I choose to enter into a personal relationship with You, Your Son, and Your Holy Spirit. Come and live in me!! Thank You for New Life in You!!! I receive Your love, grace, mercy and forgiveness. Pour into me all that you are and teach me to live like Jesus. Fill me Lord with joy, peace, love and empower me to walk in the Spirit, not in the flesh. Thank you Jesus for saving me! Amen 🙏

Healing isn't forgetting. The healing happens when you no longer react to old triggers
with the same intensity and you are able to self soothe those emotions.
