Bible Verse:
“Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.”
— 3 John 1:2 (NABRE)
Reflection:
In this brief yet heartfelt prayer, the Apostle John expresses a profound wish for the well-being of his friend Gaius. His prayer is not just for physical health but encompasses a holistic vision of well-being that includes both body and soul.
This verse underscores that true health is more than the absence of illness; it involves a harmonious balance between physical, emotional, and spiritual states. When our souls are nurtured and aligned with God’s will, it has a positive impact on our overall health and quality of life. John’s prayer reminds us that God desires our wholeness and well-being in every aspect of our lives.
As you reflect on this verse, consider how your spiritual health affects your overall well-being. Embrace the truth that God desires you to be well in every way and that His care encompasses all areas of your life. Trust in His plan for your health and well-being, and seek to align your life with His purposes.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I am grateful for Your desire for my well-being, both in body and spirit. I pray for Your healing touch and for Your guidance in all areas of my life. Help me to seek You first and to find balance and health as I grow closer to You. Thank You for Your loving care and provision. Amen.
Find hope in your darkest hour.
