Health Check-Up
Categories: Small Town Soap Box
I went to the Lord’s clinic to have my routine check-up, and confirmed I was ill. Jesus took my blood pressure and He saw I was low on tenderness. When He took my temperature, the thermometer registered 40 degrees of anxiety. He ran an electrocardiogram, and found that I needed several “Love bypasses” since my arteries were blocked by loneliness, and could not provide for an empty heart. I went to Orthopedics, because I could not walk by my brother’s side, and I could not hug my friends, since I had fractured myself when tripping with envy. He also found I was short-sighted since I could not see beyond the shortcomings of my brothers & sisters. When I complained about deafness, the diagnosis was that I had stopped listening to Jesus’ voice talking to me on a daily basis. For all that, Jesus gave me a free consultation thanks to his mercifulness. So, my pledge is, once I leave this clinic, to only take the natural remedies He prescribed through His words of truth: Every morning take a glassful of gratitude. When getting to work, take one spoonful of peace. Every hour, take one pill of patience, one cup of brotherhood, and one glass of humility. When getting home, take one dose of love. When going to bed, take two caplets of clear conscience. Do not give into sadness or desperation for what you’re going through today. God knows how you feel… God knows exactly and with perfection, what is being allowed to happen in your life at this precise moment. God’s purpose for you is simply perfect. He wants to show you things that only you can understand by living what you are living, and by being in the place you are in now.
May God give you…..
For every storm, a rainbow. For every tear, a smile. For every care a promise. And a blessing in each trial. For every problem life sends, a faithful friend to share, For every sigh, a sweet sweet song. And an answer for every prayer.
