To: metmom; roamer_1; Cronos
Amen, metmom. "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee; for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of God may rest upon me." (2 Cor. 12:9).

Whether God chooses to heal us for His glory or use our infirmities to His purpose and glory, it is His name that is exalted in all. He can and does heal. He can and does choose not to heal. But His grace is never ending and His love toward us abounds in our strengths and our weaknesses. Either way, it is His will, not ours. Glory to God when He heals us. Glory to God when He chooses another path for us.. it all works together for good to those who love the Lord, and are called according to His purpose. Such is the relationship of God and His redeemed.
