Healing - Visitor's Poem

by Brianna Headen
(Greensboro, NC, United States)

Healing is a gift from God given to special people
whom He chooses to anoint for such a special task.
Healing doesn't just come from the medicine given
but from the hands that give it and
from the smiles that come with it.
The touch on the shoulder, or the hug or
love that says everything will be ok.
It's in the box with all the surprises, and the
moments I feel like I'm the only special kid.
Even in the small exam room where
one can act a fool with each of you
to ease the pain of this long hard road.
Healing comes from the love that
each of you have for such a person like me.
God has anointed and appointed you to be
His special tool to heal my sick driven body,
and whether God chooses to heal me
on earth or in his heavenly home.
I always thank God for you.
