Guest guest Posted August 31, 2001 Report Share Posted August 31, 2001 Dear ?, I fully agree with everything you say. Sometimes we just don't understand God's ways. I agree absolutely that we should always continue our medication until we are well except in exceptional circumstances. As himself had asked God to deliver him from his thorn but God had said that his strength is made perfect in weakness. I am sure that you have been wise enough to receive the good lessons that come from illness. However, I would like to encourage everyone to remember that sickness is not from God though He allows it . Primarily, the important thing is to spend time in prayer and develop the relationship with God and God will definately see us through. If He doesn't heal us, surely He will give us the strength to carry on, to be joyful in our trials and even to bless others. God bless, Siva > i read with interest your post that God has cleared up most of your illness. > there is not one person in this group who isn't happy for you, and even if they > didn't believe would gladly pray to get rid of their pa. i think, however, that prayer > alone doesn't cure everyone.
