Health is on a continuum. One day we have it, while the next day it is lost to us. Often, during times of illness or injury, we begin to ask the hard questions: Why did this event befall me or my loved one? Why did God let this happen? Am I hurting because I have sinned, and will God heal me if I pray?. Always the answers lie not so much in the concrete and visible, but rather in the spiritual and the invisible.
The medical health care delivery system can do much to relieve our pain and suffering, but the answers to our questions come from God alone. Only the Triune God can deliver us from the overwhelming pain and worry that consume us during these times. It is through God that we find well-being, and with well-being we can rise above all our circumstances.
In this book we will explore God's prescription for good health, the development of our modern public health care system, and how God can use even poor health, to guide our souls back to Him.
