I am not charismatic but I do know that God has healed you over and over again. I have recently had major surgery. When the surgeon had done his work there was nothing more he could do for me. Healing comes from God alone and what a wonderful healer He is. I think it is amazing that after just one week stitches for most wounds are taken out and already the wound has knit together. We are wonderfully and fearfully made. Every illness you have ever had and recovered from is another demonstration of God's healing power. So just think back over your life and rejoice that God has healed you so many, many times.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
