Trials That We Face In Life: Sickness

No one has a perfect life & we all face trials. Some of us face more trials than others but we, as Christians, already know this because in first Peter chapter four Peter writes to tell us that we shouldn't be surprised that we have to go through pain and we should rejoice that we share the same sufferings as Christ. What does this mean? It means that we should feel content in knowing that God thinks so highly of us to carry out his plan(even if it hurts us).

  In this post we will discuss how to deal with physical sickness. Your sickness may be acute or chronic. Easily cured or hard to treat. Whatever your situation may be I know exactly how you feel(To learn more go to my other blog that talks about my health). You might feel hopeless and angry at God for doing such a thing to you or you may be irritated by your symptoms. In order to win this fight against the Devil you need to stay as close to God as you can spiritually so that your spiritual health flourishes. When you try to be optimistic and grow in your relationship with God you will realize that you have at least one thing to be thankful for. 1 Peter has always been my go to book in the Bible whenI feel helpless. The book soothes my worries and gives me courage. Everyone goes through suffering. You can either wallow in your own pity or be happy that your God loves you and that you are alive! It is my prayer that God blesses you if you are sick. In my next post I will talk about dealing with your emotions when it comes to having a loved one who is sick.

Remember it can't rain forever. There is always a rainbow after the rain.
