But healing hasn't come.
And recently I've been strangely okay with that. Obviously, being sick is not fun, but it's not the end of the world. For awhile, it felt like the end of my world, but it's not. I'll live; my live will go on; I'll have to change some things; but life goes on.
You see, I have been learning SOOOOOOOOOOO much through this journey. That's why I started this blog. And so many people have told me that they are learning from my journey and blog as well. There's a purpose.
And now I have this theory. People who know me best will laugh because I have theories for everything! (I have a theory that I pass out to the left based on the stories I hear... I just haven't figured out the "why" yet). Anyway, I've just started researching this new theory, so if you have any Scripture please share!!
So my theory is that God will heal me when I and everyone around me have learned everything we possibly can from my illness. Or when it stops having a purpose; when God stops getting glory from it.
"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us." (Romans 8:18).
That healing could come tomorrow (although I don't foresee that happening), 20 years from now, or the day I die. And that will be okay. Because no matter when I'm healed, I will be healed.
Paul encouraged the church at Philippi with "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen." (Philippians 4:19-20). And I believe it still applies.
Healing will come someday. Until then I will learn and give glory to God for it.
And, as always, I have a song for you :) Glory to God by Fee
