Numbers 14:1-45; Proverbs 11:1-31; 1 Peter 3:1-22
He (the Lord) heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 NKJV
It is through the ministry of Christ in our lives that we are healed. Scars remind us of where we have been, but they do not have to dictate where we are going. Healing of limbs can take time, and a genuine shepherd/elder will need to have patience with the flock. Shepherds must not be discouraged that some of the mended sheep may walk with a limp the rest of their lives. They do well if they faithfully encourage mended sheep to press on in the faith, keeping their eyes on Christ. —David A. Dunlap
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art, how great Thou art! —Carl Boberg
