I have been suffering from a tension
headache for about 2 and a half years now. I honestly wish for my tension
headache to completely go away, and pray often for this request. Yet, it would
seem like my prayers are inefficacious, given its persistence despite 2 and a
half years of waiting. That said, I can’t deny that its severity has alleviated
quite substantially from its beginning, and thus do not want to discount the
possibility of God’s intervention in my situation. The question which puzzles
me though, if indeed God is responsible for the alleviation of my tension
headache, is why God doesn’t go the whole mile and relieve me completely of
tension headache? Why just the half-mile, whereby vestiges of my tension
headache lingers? Would it be valid for me to think that there is no God in my
healing, which is more to be credited to the natural healing capabilities of
the body over the casual elapse of time?
I just don’t want to be presumptuous
either way, whether this be presuming God’s benign intervention, or his
absolute apathy. But given the persistence of my tension headache, albeit in
its alleviated form, my reasoning seems more inclined towards attributing my
healing process to impersonal healing capacity of the body, rather than towards
God. Unless, it can be thought of that God heals, but only to an extent and not
completely. I am just unable to understand the reason though why God would heal
in such a limited form, rather than exercise his powers to its ultimate effect
of complete healing. All this said, I can’t disprove either that God would
heal, but only to a limited extent. But I am more inclined to believe that if
God heals, he would heal completely and not in such half-baked measures.
