A Prayer Inspired by the Healing of the Paralytic

Lord Jesus, You who saw the suffering of the paralytic and touched him with Your compassion, granting him healing and raising him up by Your power, we come before You today, asking for Your mercy.
 

We bring to You our weaknesses, our pains, and everything that keeps us from walking in Your light.

Just as You healed the paralytic, stretch out Your hand to us—heal our bodies from illness, our hearts from anxiety, and our souls from sin.

Lord, teach us to trust in You as the paralytic did, and to carry one another in love, just as his friends carried him to You. 

Grant us unwavering faith, the courage to rise from every weakness, and the grace to live always in Your presence.

Amen.
