Health & Wellness

Self control does not work because it is centered around SELF. God has to be in complete control, not self.

“He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake”

A message to the sick and bedridden.

“Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or Wherewithal shall we be clothed?”

Satan’s most harmful tool.

The Christian and His Health

The Christian and His Health Series

You hear people praying for you. You know that you could do more for the Lord if you felt better. You could be a better wife and mother. But, your illness doesn’t go away with a simple pill or supplement. It is chronic, you will live and die with it. How can you face the future?

In this booklet, five of the seven stories spotlight children with cancer. If you or someone you know is dealing with a chronically ill child, this booklet is a must read.

You only planned to have one drink to fit in. The idea was to just fit in at that one party or gathering. You never intended for your life to be controlled by such a small thing as a cigarette or a bottle. Now, the one time becomes many times. The “casual” has become “normal” for you. You feel like your life is in a tailspin because you know what you are doing is wrong, but it has such a grip on you. What can you do now?

It seems every home should be as smooth as the “Leave It To Beaver” or “Father Knows Best.” But, your past is nothing like what you saw around you. It was embarrassing to have your friends at your house growing up because you never knew what to expect. Now you are a woman and the haunts of the past put you in fear of passing this curse to your children. You want your children to know their grandparents and relatives, but they always have questions for you on the trip home like, “Mommy, Why does grandpa…”

You were young and free. You wanted all you get from your youth. Your thinking included in an immoral lifestyle. You knew it wasn’t the best way to live, but you were free! Now, you are a grown woman. You are a Christian. Perhaps you are married. The sting of the past won’t go away. You know God has forgiven you. You believe it’s all under the blood. But it’s your mind that won’t let you rest. What can you do to deal with the past while trying to forge a better future? How do you explain it to your Godly boyfriend with whom you see a future. What if your children find something?

This is a distinctly Christian response to cancer and its debilitating effects and will be a source of encouragement to cancer sufferers and others who endure different forms of suffering and pain. We are directed heavenward and encouraged to place our hope and confidence in God along by the author.
