On Running To The Doctor – Bible study
From all of the drug advertisements on television, one would think that almost everyone is running to their doctor in order to acquire the latest and the greatest drug that supposedly will cure any ill that one might have (see article).
When this writer was growing up on a farm out in the country, we didnt run to the doctor every time we got splinter in our finger or a nail in our foot, because there was no doctor to run to. We either took care of the problem with home cure remedies (other remedies), passed down from generation to generation, or we simply suffered the consequences.
Personally, I dont put much stock [trust or confidence] in doctors, because they rarely know (or are interested) in whats going on inside (or outside) my body anyway. I do, however, put a great deal of stock in the Great Physician, because He knows me inside and out, both physically and spiritually Hes the only doctor that can cure any ailments that I might acquire through His loving providential care (see video).
Folks, the only doctor that we can put our full trust and confidence in is the Great Physician the One who can heal all our souls diseases (Luke 5:27-32; cf. 1 Timothy 1:12-16).
Lets think about it!
