Host (Mr Duru):
Hey everyone, and welcome back to the podcast.
Today we’re diving into something a little raw — something we don’t talk about enough in faith circles:
Healing isn’t always instant.
Yeah, I said it. Sometimes healing doesn’t happen overnight.
Sometimes it’s slow.
Sometimes it’s frustrating.
Sometimes it feels like nothing is changing at all.
But guess what? That doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
Let’s Get Honest
We live in a culture of instant results.
Microwaves. Fast food. Same-day shipping.
So naturally, we want our healing to work the same way.
We pray once and expect to feel whole.
We go to therapy and expect breakthroughs in week one.
We forgive and expect the pain to vanish immediately.
But real healing?
It’s rarely that tidy.
Why Healing Takes Time
Healing is more than just feeling better — it’s becoming whole.
And that requires time, process, and sometimes, pain.
“God could fix everything in a moment.
But if He did, we’d miss what He’s trying to build in us.”
Sometimes, the healing is not just about getting past something —
It’s about learning to trust again.
Learning to rest.
Learning to let go.
That takes time.
Biblical Truth
Let’s go to Scripture.
Think about the blind man in Mark 8.
Jesus spits on his eyes and lays hands on him.
Then He asks, “Do you see anything?”
The man says, “I see people… they look like trees walking around.”
In other words — it’s blurry.
So what does Jesus do?
He lays hands on him again.
The healing came in stages.
Even Jesus, the Son of God, allowed space for process.
That’s grace.
That’s permission to not be okay yet.
️ Your Slow Healing is Still Real Healing
Maybe you’re listening today and thinking:
“I’ve been praying for years… and I still feel broken.”
“I’m still triggered.”
“I still miss them.”
“I still cry.”
Friend, that doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It means you’re human. And it means the healing is still happening.
Some scars fade slow.
Some wounds close one layer at a time.
And sometimes, the miracle isn’t that it went away fast —
It’s that you’re still standing while it takes its time.
