Photo on left: swollen hand before prayer
Photo on right: hand after prayer
 
Ever since Grace was born I have suffered from Psoriatic arthritis which means my immune system attacks my joints.  Many times Nathan and I have prayed and I have asked for prayer over the years.  Then last weekend my right hand became so swollen that it became difficult to do simple things like cutting vegetables and even writing.  My hand was constantly throbbing with the swelling.  See picture below on the left. 
 
On Tuesday this week, once again Nathan prayed with me for Jesus to heal me and rebuked the swelling.  Within two days the swelling hand reduced dramatically, see photo on the right a few days later!!  (In both photos I was trying to push my fingers as close together as possible.)
 
God cares about every detail of our lives.  In our big and little challenges He wants us to pray and invite Him to be part of them and move in our lives.  I am continuing to pray and believe for complete healing from the effects of arthritis on my body. 
 
I encourage you to take some time to pray and call out too Jesus for Him to work in your life. We would love to hear about His answers to prayer.
