A Prayer for Healing: During Illness

In sickness I turn to You, O God, for comfort and help. Strengthen within me the wondrous power of healing that You have implanted in Your children. Guide my doctors and nurses that they may speed my recovery. Let my dear ones find comfort and courage in the knowledge that You are with us at all times, in sickness as in health.

May my sickness not weaken my faith in You, nor diminish my love for others. From my illness may I gain a fuller sympathy for all who suffer.

Ba-ruch a-ta Adonai, ro-fei ha-cho-lim. I praise You, O God, the Source of healing. Amen.
