- I’m finding out, at least for me, it’s easier to say “God is good” when I’m healthy.
- I seem to pray more when I’m sick; mostly for healing.
- I’ve never doubted God can heal; but found out today I doubt whether He actually wants to heal.
- I’m not sure which presents a greater theological problem…
- I’m also not sure what makes me feel worse — my sickness, or my daughters.
- Actually, I don’t know why I just wrote that — it’s my daughters sickness, easily.
- I feel so awful already, but the things I’d be willing to do (such as take on even more pain) to alleviate the sickness of my daughter have no measure.
- I begin to understand what kind of love it took for God to willfully bear my sickness for me on his body.
- Most of all, I begin to understand the sickness God bore for me had no measure…
- And for that, whether sick or healthy, I can easily say… God is good.

I believe we had a conversation about 1-3 at Urbana. kind of. “God help, God please, God do, God give me.. etc.” heavens, we’re selfish.
I’m excited for you guys. you’re in for one heck of a ride. God’s been so good to you.
my brain just exploded, too.

Great little post there. Loved the bullet-point flow. I felt like I was actually in your brain…we’ll not really. But cool nonetheless!
