This is my healing formula:
God loves me and sees me well.
The place for healing to happen is right here, right where I am.
Right now, in this very moment, is my healing time.
I already know how to heal.
God speaks my healing formula to me in the silence of prayer: “I trust you to go within to discover you already know how it feels to be whole, how to heal.”
