Myth—God Heals Everyone
Do not be concerned about your afflictions if you are righteous. God
will be near to your broken heart and He will comfort you and deliver you out of your troubles. You should be concerned when life is peaceful and you have no trouble and everything seems to be going your way. As my friend Norman says: “You might be on your way out.” Or, at the very least, you

memories of our life together and the blessing that I know she was to me.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who
comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” 2 Cor. 1:3-4
When it comes to healing in our body, you have got to move beyond your problems and allow God to deal with them. Many times in my life I have not been able to understand something. During those moments in time I was left with the option to go nuts or to give the issue up to God to handle.
I chose to put the issue(s) in a gunnysack labeled—“I can’t handle it Lord!”
Now I imagine you may have already mentally collected many such objects and you don’t know what to do with them. I can also imagine that you carry the objects in a gunnysack over your shoulder and that they are
now a heavy burden on your life. You may even have become quite irritable Copyright 2005 Edward G. Palmer, All Rights Reserved. Book of Edward—Chapter 15
