James 5:14-16

“Is any one of you sick ?

He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.”

Some of Helen Keller’s Quotes :

All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.

Some of Helen Keller’s Quotes :

Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.

Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

“The body is a miracle of complexity and sophistication that exceeds comprehension. Fortunately, most of it runs on automatic pilot – the heart beats, the blood circulates, the glands secrete, the enzymes catalyze, the electrolytes balance, the glucose metabolizes, the liver detoxifies. Even our thinking and breathing are largely automatic and involuntary; our brain and lungs function NOT because we tell them to but because GOD tells them to.

God gave us an amazing gift, and all we are required to do is to feed it, water it, rest it and move it. Yet it needs to be the right food, water, rest and movement. If we do our assignment well, we will work better, run better, feel better, heal better and live better.”

– Dr Richard Swenson, author of “Margin”
