“When the Lord knows that good health is necessary for our welfare, He sends it to us; and when we need sickness, He sends that too.”

--St. Teresa of Avila For Reflection:

Can I think of a time in my own life (or in another’s life) when sickness was a blessing? What spiritual benefits did it bring?  “We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28).
