Scripture and a Snapshot - Recuperate

Praise the LORD, my soul;

all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

Praise the LORD, my soul,

and forget not all his benefits -

who forgives all your sins

and heals all your diseases,

who redeems your life from the pit

and crowns you with love and compassion,

who satisfies your desires with good things

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

The LORD is compassionate and gracious,

slow to anger, abounding in love.

He will not always accuse,

not will he harbor his anger forever;

he does not treat us as our sins deserve

or repay us according to our iniquities.

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,

so great is his love for those who fear him;

as far as the east is from the west,

so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

~Psalm 103:1-5, 8-12~

What love, patience, and grace! Not only does God forgive us and redeem us, but he heals us and gives us strength. Our sin is a disease and damages us in so many ways. Sin has damaged mankind and all of creation, and because we live in a fallen world, some of those effects won't be erased until we reach heaven. But God has had a plan to save us right from the beginning. He has been working to bring us back into right relationship with him and with each other. He saves us and gives us the Holy Spirit, and so we can recover from the sickness and weariness of sin, we can regain our health and strength, we can recover from our losses, and we can be restored to God.

recuperate - verb (used without object)  -  to recover from sickness or exhaustion; regain health or strength; to recover from financial loss.

verb (used with object) - to restore to health, vigor, etc.
