Day 4 - Never Stopping, Ever Searching

The Healer

The cultivation of Christlike qualities is a demanding and relentless task - it is not for the seasonal worker or for those who will not stretch themselves, again and again. --Spencer W. Kimball

The Invitation … Search
-Read the account of Jairus in Matthew 9:18-26.

The Journey
-Think back on a time in your life when you had to search for the Savior to find strength beyond your own. Try to remember the process you went through in that search. Was it scripture study, more meaningful prayers, or another avenue that led you to Christ?
-Stretch again. Apply one of those principles today.

My experience …
I loved reading the account of Jairus last night. Something about it struck me. I think I found myself drawn to the great faith that Jairus had. Not only was Jairus full of faith, the woman who had the issue of blood had just as much. She knew she could be healed by just touching the Master’s robe. That is tremendous faith.

I have come to learn that I have great faith in Jesus Christ. I have gone through great trials lately and have had every reason to not move forward. I’m thankful that I have wonderful friends who have encouraged me along my new journey. I’m even more thankful for a Savior who has not only walked beside me, but has carried me more often than not.

Finding this new found love for the Savior has been very rewarding and peaceful for me. I feel His love on a daily basis. I can hear him telling me the same thing that he told the woman who touched the hem of his robe, “Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole.” Reading those words last night made me feel as though He was right there in my room. He has healed my broken heart.



I’m grateful to Him. My promise to my Savior in order to stretch myself is to share this new found faith with those I come in contact with. I hope that I can always honor these feelings I am having. I know they are from the Savior and they are witnessed to my heart by the Holy Ghost. I hope that I will always search for ways to allow the Savior into my life and into my heart.
