Pastor Mike is back! Well, mostly. Still in recovery phase from a week of sickness he makes an effort to string thoughts together in a sensible way!
The topic today is an extension of meditating on the experience of being sick and how the process of healing happens. It is a good analogy for the Christian experience. We are given new life by and in Christ, but the old carnal nature still exists, like the lingering effects of a bad sickness. Recovery (as in, our Christian maturity) will largely depend on how we do, or do not, take personal responsibility to help ourselves continue to get well.
In recovering from sickness we need to pace ourselves, drink plenty of fluids, eat healthy, and be patient. How might this translate into the spiritual life?
