Healed From Thyroid Condition
My battle with thyroid problems has robbed me of
my joy for many years. In the summer of 2006,
my thyroid got so bad, I lost 40lbs in two weeks.
I was so thin that I looked like a skeleton.
On 10 May 2007, my friend introduced your online
Daily Devotional* to me. Learning about God’s grace
blew me away! In September 2007, my friend began to
lend me some of your sermon CDs. Well, all I can say
is that my life is never the same again! Now, I read the
Scriptures not because I have to, but because I want to
know more about His love for me. I just enjoy being in
God’s presence.
During this time, I also stopped taking my thyroid
medication. And just by cultivating His presence every
day, I totally forgot about my thyroid. I feel more alive
and energetic.
In early March 2008, my mom called to inform me
that my insurance provider has asked me to go for my
routine medical check-up. So I went. And guess what?
My 12-year thyroid condition is gone! Indeed, by His
stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5)
Truly, right believing produces right living. The
more I believe that I am the righteousness of God in
Christ, the more the fruit of the Spirit — love, joy,
peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, self-control — springs from within.
Thank you so much for your teaching on being the
righteousness of God in Christ!
