“Of Healing Treatment And Avoidance”
With healing done, treatment remains;
Though similar, word’s not the same –
A doctor cleans and tucks things in,
So healing part God can begin.Like cancer-treatment in my case –
The healing came, then grains in place
So radiation pellets did
Their treatment task to cancer rid –From body in that strict locale;
It worked, both needed – I got well;
Prevention also plays a part –
Not giving it a place to start.When these get mixed up, we’ve up prob –
Wrong aspect’s used to do a job;
Faith takes a beating every day
When misconstrued in silly ways.The St. John picture’s case in point –
They prayed for healing in his joint
They had some meds, and used the Doc.
A team effect to help him walk.Initial time I cancer had,
My situation was quite bad –
With team in place I was not there;
Flipped “switch” within helped God repair.The nurse just simply prayed for me –
A simple prayer, which met the need;
The switch turned on, I joined the team;
God healed with them – that’s what I mean.Our needs are quite diverse, it seems –
God heals His way, and uses means
Diverse, like Christ when he was ’round;
Quite varied ways in Scripture’s found.So, Father-God, You made this place;
Lord Jesus, You assign each case;
And Holy Spirit through Your gifts
Through people help to burdens lift.So, triune-God help us respond
In all three ways, thus, move beyond
Simplistic misconceptions here,
That health return, with way made clear.“So, Stu-Art here’s a case in point –
You placed a pic I could anoint,
Not in the first case, nor in this,
But in My ways as Heavens kiss.Thanks Holy Spirit for this.
