I have Pondered The question of healing for very long time. I have come to realize that God allows some suffering to help us grow in our relationship with him... Take The apostle Paul for example, He had his site taken away for several days,then God restored it! I think a lot of us including myself, forget that Saul was Paul's name before he had this conversion experience… He persecuted Much of the early church . My point in saying this is that God's power is made perfect in weakness , Paul writes" And he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, because the power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore rather I will boast most gladly in my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ may reside in me. 10 Therefore I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in calamities, in persecutions and difficulties for the sake of Christ, for whenever I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9–10
You might be thinking how does this apply to my life? Or maybe you have prayed for healing and don't understand why it hasn't happened. I get that , I have been there too... I digress , I can't explain why God allows suffering, but as I heard it said" sometimes God allows what he hates to accomplish what he loves." What kind of things does God want to accomplish in your circumstance? I believe He wants us to see our circumstances as opportunities rather then another weight to carry. I hope this can encourage you today!
