What is it within mankind that we feel the night to fight against the simplest of things… and the best of things?
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits:
Who forgives ALL your iniquities,
Who heals ALL your diseases,
Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
(Psalm 103:2-5)
So much energy is spent within the Church by people who are desperately trying to STAY sick!
Yes, you know what, if you’re sick, you should deal with it in a temporary fashion however seems best. Need a wheelchair? Ride in one. Need medicine? Take it. But seek healing. Seek the wholeness that God has PROMISED (and read 1 Cor 1:20 until it gets down deep inside of you).
Don’t get comfortable because your symptoms can be alleviated or you can “live with it” – that’s NOT God’s best.
