Christian Thoughts- Dr. Johnson Cherian- 05-07-2016

I have a 26 year old female patient who has hypothyroidism, multiple joint pains, a left kidney stone, a bony growth on her left hand and she is on many medications which have many side effects. She and her husband are born again believers and have a 2 year old child. She has been diagnosed with autoimmune disorder (An autoimmune disorder is one in which the body's immune system attacks and destroys healthy body tissue). Medically, the prognosis doesn't look pretty, but they are praying.

How are you this day? If in better health than her, praise God. Grumbling comes easy to some of us, even though we enjoy relatively good health and have many other blessings. It's not that those who suffer from multiple sicknesses are worse sinners and those who are in good health are the holy ones. There are many causes of sicknesses, some not yet identified.

If you are sick presently, know that there are others suffering too, some probably in a more worse condition than you. Healing can come through medicines or supernaturally and it may come soon or may take a while. You need to stay focused on Jesus, your Savior, the author and finisher of your faith. He says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)
