God is a holistic doctor. His concern is our total health, body and soul. It should come as no surprise that His prescriptions might use a physical malady to cure a spiritual one.

I don’t think for a moment that God causes physical illness to punish people, but I am certain He will use it to bring about spiritual healing. I think we lean more toward physical health while God leans more toward the spiritual side of things. After all, the spiritual will survive the physical and the health of our body is certainly tied to the health of our soul.

“May you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers.” 3Joh.2.1 “Conversations Within” ts 10/30/2019
