The Physician

Christ is a physician, and He is the best there is. Whatever disease afflicts the believer, he has the remedy to heal. I have never known one stricken believer who is sealed with the Holy Spirit that did not enter heaven after death.

O poor Christian, are you sick? Come to the great physician who can heal your soul. Only come to him and trust him as you lay on your sickbed. Sleep well for it is Christ who is watching over you. He is a great physician that has never failed to heal a patient.

It is He who binds up the brokenhearted and washes away our sins. He restores our souls. Whatever soul surgery you are in need of, come to Christ who can restore both the body and the soul. See, He is a shepherd for his sheep, and if he would go through great troubles to find a lost sheep, how much more will he cater to those sheep that are sick and come to him for nourishment. I have never heard of Christ casting away the sick that came to him in humility. Such is His heart that He wept for those that bruised him.

And He prays for you and intercedes for you. What can death do but carry you into His everlasting presence. What can sickness do but bring you closer to His table where He will comfort you. O great physician my life is in your hands and unto you I commit my body and spirit.
