My story of healing from Chronic Illness

Fully recovering from many chronic conditions by rewiring my brain and growing my faith I knew I wanted to share some of my favorite bible verses for healing with you. First, I’ll share a little about my story with you.

I’ll go into more detail in a later blog post but for now I want to share my story of chronic illness in a shortened version. Easter night 2021 I woke up in the middle of the night and had a massive seizure. My illness really started a few years before this, but for the last year and a half nobody really knew how to figure out what was going on with me.

You Can Rest

As I lay in the hospital bed early morning I kept having this phrase “you can rest” enter my mind. It was just a steady “you can rest” over and over. In a time of complete frantic and panic I suddenly felt very calm and at peace. Knowing deep in my heart that my story was just beginning and my situation would get figured out.

I didn’t really know this was God working on transforming my heart at the time; I just knew that I would heal and everything would be okay. There was this hard to explain peace and calmness that just flow throughout my body. It’s kinda a hard thing to explain.

From there it was a long and difficult road for myself, my kids, my husband, and my whole family. I had daily seizures, tremors, word finding difficulties, memory loss, extreme sensitivities to light/sounds/touch, difficulty walking and talking some days,  and many more symptoms that impacted every area of my body. I dealt with PTSD flashbacks, and severe anxiety and depression symptoms.

Yet, God allowed me to feel peace throughout all of the crazy. It was this deep inner knowing that this would get figured out. Afterall, looking back I don’t think it was a coincidence that all of this happened on Easter night.

God At Work

While dealing with my body and mind seeming to fail me, God was at work the whole time transforming my heart. The right medical team was coming together at exactly the right time and soon my diagnosis was confirmed. I had multiple Lyme disease infections that attacked my brain and went through many months of antibiotic treatment and an herbal protocol.

I eventually ended up spending the last 11 months completing Annie Hopper’s DNRS brain rewiring program which has been life changing. Also, committing to daily devotions, prayer/quiet time, and reading God’s word (the bible) everyday. Many days I would just sit in stillness and quiet and say “God, I’m here.”

Fully Recovered with DNRS and Growing my Faith

DNRS and growing my faith have me fully recovered. I’m currently 2.5 months seizure free and I’m at peace. My mind, body, and heart are connected and balanced. I went into DNRS to solely heal my long list of physical symptoms but with DNRS and growing my faith daily I have grown stronger not only physically but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. You can read more about my journey HERE.

I’ve relied on many bible verses for healing during this last few years and some I have written down and I read through them daily to remind me of God’s amazing power and transformation that takes place when we focus daily on HIM.

I have so much peace, comfort, HOPE, and life in me and when you allow God to truly transform your heart you can live your life fully! I believe God kept me in my circumstances so I would rely on him and his word which is the truth, the light, and the way out of darkness. Instead of focusing on my circumstances of illness and fear I chose to focus on truth, hope, and comfort that only God can provide us. HE carried me out of the darkness and onto a path filled with so much JOY!

Bible Verses For Healing

As I begin my journey with DNRS brain rewiring I also chose to begin a bible study. I’ve seen so many similarities in healing the brain and body with healing in the bible and what God says about healing the sick. These bible verses for healing help me daily to go back to the word and remember that God is working in us if we allow him to do so. They provide you with hope that your future is bright and joyful.

I wrote them down and keep them on my desk. I refer to these bible verses for healing daily. I’m going to write them below for you! My hope is that you will also refer back to these or share them with a loved one.

How To Use A Bible Verse For Healing

Well friends, there is no right or wrong way. First thing is to just start being open to growing your faith. I started reading a daily devotion called Jesus Calling that I love so much. I love it so much I’ve gifted it to friends and family! It seems that every morning that I read the devotion for the day, it is exactly what I’ve needed to hear or it relates to something that is on my heart at the moment.

Next, I will just sit in my favorite chair in the early morning with my warm cup of coffee in my favorite coffee mug and just read the verse to myself and sit in quiet for a minute. The amazing thing about God’s love is HE already knows what you are going through, how you feel, and what you NEED. So friends, sometimes you don’t even have to say a bunch of stuff. You can sit in his stillness and quiet and know that he is with you and guiding you.

I also write down my favorite bible verse for healing and keep it on my desk so that I know I will see it a couple of times a day. You can even write it on a sticky and stick it to your bathroom mirror. Say the verse to yourself and smile while looking in the mirror.

Focusing on Something Bigger Than Myself

Keeping my focus on God and not on me helps me to live life according to God’s plans for me. It allows me to focus on something so much better and bigger than myself.

This gives me so much peace, comfort, and inner joy. Focusing on God and his amazing work takes the focus off of symptoms, negativity, and fear. Those are three things that consumed me before I faithfully rewired my brain and God transformed my heart.

I hope you find this post helpful and will share with friends and family. I have a monthly newsletter that I share more about rewiring my brain and faith.  You are welcome to join in on the fun. Thanks for reading and I look forward to sharing more to inspire others so they can live a life rooted in grace and freedom!
