We all know the feeling, when your body starts to show signs of weakening and you can feel a cold or the flu is on the way. We all know that we have to get rest and if necessary make a trip to the doctor to get the necessary antibiotics.
The question is, do we know the symptoms when our emotions or spiritual state require attention? Most of us do, but we pay them little attention. Shortness of temper, depression, anxiety, frustration. All signs that something is not quite right.
We all take medicines for colds or flu, but what medicine should we take for our souls and spirit? Rest is key to all forms of recovery. Meditation on God's goodness. Time spent in quite spaces and in nature, sooth the soul. Time spent in fellowship with God, in every form possible, in the word, in church and fellowship.
(I will discuss the role of faith in our healing process in a separate blog)
