Good health is something we often take for granted when we're young.  Most of us don't realize good health is a blessing God gives us because he Loves us so much.

As we move away from God (sin) and get closer to the world (evil) our health begins to deteriorate.  Doctors and hospitals do not provide health.  They mostly destract us from our pain while God himself does the work of healing our body.

God gives life and healing to our mortal body.  As our awareness of God increases, and our fear and awe of His presence increases, so does also our fullness of life and our health.

ASV | Mark 2:3 - 2:5, 2:10 - 2:12

3And they come, bringing unto him a man sick of the palsy, borne of four.

4And when they could not come nigh unto him for the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed whereon the sick of the palsy lay.

5And Jesus seeing their faith saith unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven.

10But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins (he saith to the sick of the palsy),

11I say unto thee, Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thy house.

12And he arose, and straightway took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

God is always bringing healing to our mortal body.  He heaps healing on us all the time because of how much he loves us.

But because of our sin, we don't receive God's healing.  Once we turn to God, and lay are brokeness before Him, he gives us powerful and even instantaneous healing.

The world gives us a small amount of healing for a short while, but God gives us constant healing forever.  We absolutely have to keep our hearts and mind fixed on the goodness of God, and keep ourselves from believing in the world.
