Been thinking a lot about our niece Melanie and her family. No big
surprise considering the seriousness of the situation. As much as we
all want to see her restored to health in this life, its a very real
possibility that she will receive the "Ultimate Healing" from the Great
Physician Himself. I have done a lot of thinking about the whole matter
of healing recently. Any healing on this side of glory is only
temporary. Think about the two examples where Jesus raised Lazarus from
the dead and also the daughter of Jairus the ruler. Yes, they were
miraculously healed not just from illness but from death itself. This
healing was only temporary. They still had to grow old and go through
death again for the second time. The ultimate healing takes place when
we are in the presence of our Saviour at last. What a God we serve that
has come in the form of His only Son to provide forgiveness of sin and
eternal life. Have you trusted Him as Savior and recognized Him as the
only means of salvation?
I haven't heard this song in quite some time and didn't even
remember all the words but it started ringing in my head the past few
days. I was able to locate the lyrics online and actually listen to the
song as sung by Wayne Watson. Powerful stuff as I thought of Mel and
her family with all they are going through. Here are the words...
I'm trying hard not to think you unkind
But Heavenly Father
If you know my heart
Surely you can read my mind
Good people underneath the sea of grief
Some get up and walk away
Some will find ultimate relief
Chorus
Home Free, eventually
At the ultimate healing we will be Home Free
Home Free, oh I've got a feeling
At the ultimate healing
We will be Home Free
Out in the corridors we pray for life
A mother for her baby, A husband for his wife
Sometimes the good die young
It's sad but true
And while we pray for one more heartbeat
The real comfort is with you
You know pain has little mercy
And suffering's no respecter of age, of race or position
I know every prayer gets answered
But the hardest one to pray is slow to come
Oh Lord, not mine, but Thy will be done
Let it be...
Chorus
Home Free, eventually
At the ultimate healing we will be Home Free
Home Free, oh I've got a feeling
At the ultimate healing
We will be Home Free
Home Free, eventually
At the ultimate healing gonna be Home Free
Home Free, oh its more than a feeling
At the ultimate healing
Gonna be Home Free
