How to practice this name today

Four small steps. Don't try to do all of them. Pick one. Do it today.

1.

Tell Him where it hurts — out loud.

Don't summarize. Don't spiritualize. Use the words you would use if no one were listening. He is listening, and He is not shocked.

2.

Receive His presence, not just answers.

Healing is sometimes immediate. More often, it is companionship through the long road. Let Him sit with you today, even before the cure.

3.

Do one small thing that tends the wound.

Drink water. Eat something nourishing. Sleep. Call the doctor you have been avoiding. Stewarding your body is an act of faith, not a lack of it.

4.

Bless one other wounded person.

Healing flows. Send the message. Leave the meal. Speak the kind word. Often the path of our own healing is paved by tending another's.
