| Call the Doctor! |
|
| "They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners." ( Mark 2:17 , KJV ) |
|
Shakespeare had Macbeth pose this question to the court physician:
Can'st thou minister to a mind diseased, pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, raze out the written troubles of the brain and with some sweet, oblivious antidote cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous grief which weights upon the heart?
The physician in Macbeth sadly shakes his head and answers, "Therein the patient must minister to himself."
We know that a patient cannot really minister to himself; no one can purge his conscience of the memory and guilt of past misdeeds. They pursue us relentlessly as they pursued Macbeth.
There is a Great Physician, however, who can perform this healing operation and never leave a scar. He places His hand upon the willing patient and draws out the infectious venom which is destroying the peace and happiness of life. He has done this for many men and women. He can do it for you. He wants to do it for you.
God through Christ can give us the peace and strength we so desperately need and seek. |

Heavenly Father, thank You for the healing balm of Your love and forgiveness. May it continue to give us the peace and security we cannot find anywhere else. In Jesus' name. Amen. - EDWARD L. KIRK, Stephenville, Texas |
