Bethlehem Blessing

For almost a year, maybe longer, I have been wondering what was wrong with me. I have been spinning in circles, running back and forth, and not knowing what to do with myself. I was supposed to be flying forward with the business I had started, but it just wasn’t happening.

I would take a few steps in the right direction and then I’d be falling backward, not progressing.

Finally, after many trips that felt like traveling to the moon and back, I remembered a Bible verse I had seen quite a while ago. When I saw the verse had a part about having a demon, I thought it might just be for other people. I never thought I had a demon in me. I was wrong.

Matthew 12:22 reads, “Then some people brought to Jesus a man who was blind and could not talk because he had a demon. Jesus healed the man so that he was able to talk and see.” The Good News Translation Bible (GNT).

In my case, I could not see that I was getting angry with other people and blaming them for my not advancing, when it was in my control all along. I realized that I needed to stand up for myself. Mostly, it was a silent activity. It was believing in myself and my abilities. It was identifying my value.

I read Matthew 12::22 aloud, prayed it, and instantly knew what I am worth. I do feel healed by Jesus now. I am ready for the destiny that awaits me.

Thank you for reading.

I love you,

Lisa/ Soon to be Lisa DeWitt
