Faith That Feels Real: Part 2 - Meeting God in Our WoundsSample

It’s easy to think we’ll heal once life finally improves—when the stress lifts, the relationship mends, or the pain goes away. But in John 5:6–9, Jesus meets a man who had been stuck for 38 years. He didn’t wait until the man could get to the healing waters—He brought the healing to him.

The same is true for you. You don’t have to clean yourself up before coming to Jesus. He meets you in the middle of your struggle, your waiting, your mess—and offers healing right there.

Reflect & Apply:

• Where have you been waiting for your circumstances to change before seeking God’s healing?
• How does the story in John 5 challenge your view of when and how healing can happen?
• What would it look like to invite Jesus into your current “stuck” place today?
