Hello brothers and sisters;
This may be a sensitive question and if you feel uncomfortable sharing then I understand and will ask you to pray for others.
Do you have a health concern that we can pray for? I'll start first.
I have type II diabetes. I was diagnosed back in 1990. I was 33 years old and being an active ball player it was hard to swallow and accept. After the shock I got a grip and through my doctor's help in treating my diabetes I started taking meds on a daily basis, exercise and watch what I eat.
In my later years I have accepted that my type II diabetes can lead to a break down in my organs, affect my eyesight and cause other complications if I don't manage my health problem. By God's grace and great healing I have been able to manage my sugar level (A1C), my optometrist gave me a clean bill of health on my eye tests this year with another one following after the summer. I exercise weekly to work up a sweat.
I need prayer to maintain the discipline of managing my diabetes. The temptation of eating too many sweets, getting lazy to exercise and not wearing the proper glasses for my eyes are negative signs that could affect my later years.
In Jeremiah 33:6, 6 Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security. - ESV
In Jeremiah the people were suffering from destruction, no doubt health issues and death. In their city God promised to bring healing and good health. In this context God is the Great Healer. Managed or good health is prosperity. Security includes serving others physically besides spiritually.
God bless you all and thank you for allowing me to share my vulnerable condition with my health.
I would love to hear others so we can pray for your health no matter where you are.
