Day 254 of 365
Healing
Fixing broken things is God's specialty. That wasn't His original area of expertise; creation was. But Satan, His created being, turned against Him, came into His garden, and brought deception, blame, shame, and brokenness. That was what Satan intended, but he underestimated God. Jesus would be His answer. He came to earth in human form to take away the sin and pain of His people. He would fix the broken places, heal and forgive.
If you are sick in spirit, Jesus wants to heal you. If your relationships are sick, He wants to bring wholeness. If your soul is damaged with discouragement, He wants to repair you. If your body is hurting, He wants to relieve your pain. His whole heart toward His creation is to heal us where we are hurt, because He says, "I am the Lord who heals you."

Exodus 15:22-27 NASB
22 Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness and found no water. 23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore it was named Marah. 24 So the people grumbled at Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?" 25 Then he cried out to the L ord , and the L ord showed him a tree; and he threw it into the waters, and the waters became sweet.
There He made for them a statute and regulation, and there He tested them. 26 And He said, "If you will give earnest heed to the voice of the L ord your God, and do what is right in His sight, and give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I, the L ord , am your healer."
27 Then they came to Elim where there were twelve springs of water and seventy date palms, and they camped there beside the waters.
