Psalm 147:3
Have you ever faced a situation that felt too painful to heal? The Israelites did when they arrived at Marah and found only bitter water to drink. But God turned the bitter into sweet, showing them that He alone is their provider and healer. Like the Israelites, we often struggle to trust God’s healing power. We hold onto bitterness, questioning if good can come from suffering. Yet, God calls us to bring our wounds to Him. He doesn’t just remove hardship—He transforms it. His grace can turn pain into purpose and brokenness into restoration. If you’re facing a bitter season, trust that God is still working. He can take the hardest moments of your life and bring healing beyond what you can imagine. His provision is always near.
