One of my favorite miracles of Jesus, especially after watching The Chosen, is the healing of the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda (John 5:1–15). This man had been disabled for thirty-eight years when Jesus came to him and asked, “Wilt thou be made whole?”

The man explained that he had no one to help him into the pool when the water was stirred. Then Jesus simply said, “Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” Immediately, he was healed.

I love this miracle because it beautifully illustrates the Savior’s compassion and His power to heal, even after someone has waited a very long time for relief.

We all carry burdens that feel heavy and difficult to bear. Some of us may long for physical healing that doesn’t come in this life. Yet the Savior offers something even greater—He can make us whole spiritually. He can heal wounded hearts, strengthen weary spirits, and give us peace in the midst of our struggles. We need only reach out to Him and trust in His perfect timing and love.

What burdens are you carrying today that you need to place in the Savior’s hands? In what ways has Jesus helped make you spiritually whole, even in the midst of life’s challenges?

Just a Thread of Faith

My Daily Musings-April 29th, 2026

Sometimes lately, I feel like I’ve been hanging on by a thread.

That thought brought to mind the woman in scripture who had suffered for years, yet believed that if she could only touch the hem of Jesus’ garment, she could be healed. She reached through the crowd with faith and touched just a thread—and everything changed.

What moves me just as much as her healing is His response. Jesus stopped. He noticed her. He called her forward. He knew her pain before she ever spoke it.

How often do we forget that He notices us too? How often do we think our quiet reaching goes unseen?

Even when healing doesn’t come in the way or timing we hope for, we can still reach for Him. He can steady the trembling heart, strengthen weary hands, and help us through one more day.

If you feel like you’re hanging on by a thread, what if that thread is enough when it is tied to Him?
