Good Health Praise God

The hardest part about when you’re going through something mentally and physically, doctors give you medicine hoping that it will help you. I don’t deny that there are medications that people need and there are some medicines out there that really do help. But, when your doctors can’t figure out what is wrong with you and give you medicine in “hoping” it helps, sometimes it just makes you feel worse than what you were feeling before you took the pill.

Having to take medicine on the daily isn’t always easy. Sometimes it actually sucks. I have taken medication for over 15 years now, and I haven’t lived that long yet. I am glad that there is medicine out in the world to help us to feel better, don’t get me wrong. I just wish we were given the RIGHT medicine to help us. Honestly, there are times where I listen to the doctors more than I let God take control and I learn from those lessons. I know doctors aren’t God. Doctors do what’s possible, God does the impossible.

I know there are so many people out in this world that are struggling with many different things. I understand the pain and frustration of wanting answers, wanting it to go away, or just wishing you had relief. I have been in situations like those so many times, still going through it currently. But the one thing that has given me peace from this is knowing that it is out of my control. Why should I worry when it’s out of my control? I am doing what I can with how I take care of myself and what I eat. But with not having a 100% confirmation on what is going on with my health, why would I waste my time worrying? I understand that there are people who do know what they are struggling with. What you’re going through may not be easy. Sometimes we don’t understand WHY we’re going through stuff. Yet even though we don’t know, God DOES! If He has brought you this far in life, why would he stop now? He has a plan for your life. He knows what we’re going through. Why should I waste my time and energy worrying when I’m blessed to even wake up another day? I won’t deny that some days are harder than others and my faith becomes weak, that happens. But I think that during the hard times, that’s also when our faith strengthens, and our relationship grows stronger. James 1:2-4 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trails of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”
