March 3 - Works together for good

Jesus said, 'It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.'  Matthew 9:12


Is seeking medical help a sign of lack of faith?  Jan Dravecky writes from experience:  'Although Jesus Himself declared the sick need a doctor, some be;ievers continue to insist that seeking medicsl help demonstrates a lack of faith - especially when the help that's needed is psychological.


But the human brain is a physical organ.  Why can't we accept that the brain can get sick. just as a heart or liver can?  Our mental health is partially a result of what is happening in the part of our bodies called the brain.  Depression, for example, involves a lack of seratonin necessary to transport the responses between the neurons in the brain.


So don't just sit there and let someone tell you to pull yourself together; you may be physically incapable of pulling yourself together.  Even if you're afraid of what you might find out, face that fear and get professional help to find out what is causing your problems and what can be done to help you.'
