We all have been sick. We all have

We all have been sick.

September 5, 2024

We all have been sick. We all have had health issues at one time or another. In fact, for some being sick is the norm and having a good day seems like a miracle. Sometimes, people do not even realize you are sick, because on the outside you look healthy as a horse, but on the inside the storm is raging. The sickness is taking its course upon your body. So, you pray for a miracle that your health will and would improve, but sometimes it doesn’t. And all you can do is to keep on keeping on, praying all the while. Hoping for a miracle. Wondering all the while, why some people are cured and others not! Scripture tells us to cast our cares upon the LORD. Psalms 55:22 reads, “Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.” And maybe just maybe that is the miracle in and of itself. That God is giving you the strength to experience another day. Remember, you really do not know what a person is going through, so be kind and supportive, for that is all any of us really want. God Bless. Amen.
