Call to Worship
God invites us into his healing presence with these words: “I am the Lord, who heals you.”
Diseased, depressed, dysfunctional, defeated,
we come hungering for health that only God can provide.
God calls us to bring open eyes, hearing ears,
and tender hearts turned toward him, the Great Physician.
We bow before him in faith and expectancy!
—based on Exodus 15:26; Isaiah 6:10
