The power of prayer to lessen the effects of disease and speed recovery has been the focus of many scientific studies, and public opinion polls reveal that people do believe in the healing power of personal prayer. Whether medical science can “prove” that prayer is linked to the healing process, what matters most is how you can receive God’s compassionate healing when you pray for guidance and wisdom in dealing with your or a loved one’s illness. This powerful PrayerNote points out the countless benefits of prayer and reminds us that even if a “cure” doesn’t happen, the healing power of prayer has a lasting effect on everyone involved.
