The Bible & health
After church we had lunch at Fuddruckers. They have expanded their menu so that it is friendly to As and Os. My husband and daughter got turkey burgers, which they thoroughly enjoyed. The last time we were here I had an ostrich burger. It was good but not outstanding. Today I got their low carb plate. It is a 1/3 pound beef patty with a side salad. When they asked what kind of dressing at first I said "No dressing", then I said, "Could I just have oil on the side?" They said, "Is olive oil ok?" I smiled - olive oil is great!
I have been surprised how many Bible verses about health I have noticed this year. Sometimes it seems as if they just jump off the page. For instance yesterday I was reading in 2 Chronicles about Asa, one of the good kings of Judah. Here is 2 Chronicles 16:12. Though his disease was severe, even in his illness he did not seek help from the Lord, but only from the physicians.
It made me think of my experience. When I started having stomach problems, I first turned to nutrition. Whole grains made me worse, vitamins didn't help. Then I turned to doctors. Tests showed no cause, and medications didn't help. Then I turned to the Lord in prayer. That same day I read about the Blood Type Diet. A week later I was free of pain, and my health has continued to improve for 15 months.
I still study nutrition; I think it is important. I'm glad I have a doctor I trust; he can diagnose and treat things that I can not do for myself. But who best knows my type and the way I am made, than the God who made me.
