We have to unite in prayer on his behalf and of all our fellow member sufferers who are in need of prayer. God is no respecter of persons so we have to pray, in the sincere hope. that these cures being prayed for are in His predestined Will that's what miracles are, not a change in God's predestined plan.

Amen to that Roy!!!

Love Heidi

Linny I agree with most of what you said about great health tips because we are to treat our bodies as temples -- BUT -- you have been blessed with good health and healthy children. You are obviously a great mom but you are a blessed mom.

I have had chronic migraines for 40 years now so have a somewhat different perspective. I have read, studied and researched every thing I could find for years. I've tried herbs, vitamins, acupuncture, chiropractors, biofeedback, the migraine diet and every "cure" on the market. I've been through all the pharmaceuticals as well from beta blockers to antidepressants for prevention and many pain relievers. I had migraines before there was medicine specifically for migraines.

The emergency room was my forced mode of treatment for decades and then I had a decade of very painful self-injections but now,  thank God, there are meds available that keep me out of the ER. Big Pharma charges me an arm and a leg for the Zomig I take BUT it has kept me from chopping my head off.

I am talking about 40 years of sometimes daily migraine -- and then I'll go through periods of great relief where I'll only have 2 or 3 a month. Without the medical establishment of Babylon I would have preferred death. In the last century I would have been buying those bottles of "tonic" with codeine and sucking them down.

And without the "worldly" medical establishment I would have died in childbirth. Luke was a physician.

A very close friend was an SDA and followed the health laws of Scripture pretty closely. She was vegetarian though. She died of breast cancer last year at 52.

My father died of cancer and chemo made him miserable. My SDA friend and my best friend 20 years ago both died of cancer and chemo made them miserable. I am also glad Ray is going natural. I would go the hyperbaric/oxygenating route myself and know that if it worked it was of God and if it didn't it was of God. I might try the Cancer Center of America because they mix natural with medical.

But a healthy diet didn't keep Ray's son alive and an unhealthy diet didn't "smack" Ray.

I agree with Roy but I don't think we are to "test" God by saying "heal me or nothing." God is using Dr. Stegler to His Purpose. He has used my lifetime of migraines to His Purpose. He has blessed me through the worldly medical system.

The leading cause of death is ... birth. It's just a question of what kind of death we have.

Yes, Heidi we must all unite in prayer. God's Will will be done.

Linny, your family sounds very much like ours :). It's refreshing to see someone else who has had the same revelations that we have.

Linny:
Hi Carol,
I am so sorry about your migraines. I have a dear friend who suffers so much from them. I haven't researched them as you have so I cannot answer why you have not found an answer. I am sure that God is using them for good in your life. But I also cannot say that there isn't an answer either. I see a lot of articles about them at mercola.com. Perhaps there is something there you have not tried, perhaps not. I understand your life experiences have led you to better feelings about the medical system. Mine have not. I watched my father lose all quality of life and die this year because of the medical system he put his trust in and I am doing my best to pull my mom out of it before it is too late for her. I have spent the last 2 weeks watching her be poked and drugged in the hospital and she is in re-hab now. Had I not known so many people to find healing outside that system, I would probably feel as you do.

But I have to say that I was not always a healthy person. I suffered from constant headaches till I went off artificial sweeteners. I used to have colds, flus, sinus infections, kidney infections, chronic yeast infections, abnormal cell growth in my uterus, I was also unable to have babies and not ovulating. My life changes that I was blessed to find changed all that for me.  I was a baby with chronic ear infections. My kids have never had a single one.  I don't think it is just that I am blessed that my kids are so healthy since the only other kids I know that are this healthy also were raised as mine. I don't think it is a coincidence. I do consider myself blessed however to have been given this information.

I hope I don't sound like I am arguing with you. It is a very tough issue and close to everyones hearts since we all have our own life experiences that go into our beliefs. I just wanted to say that from my life experience, I have found so much peace where we are and want to share that with anyone who will listen. Disease just doesn't scare me anymore as I truly believe that I can find healing from ANYTHING without the trauma of doctors, drugs and side-effects. It is a peace I wish for everyone. Having healthy children is an amazing blessing and my heart breaks for families who deal with sick children especially when I feel like what I have learned could help them.

Anthony, organic is expensive! We are on disability pay and we have no extra income so we have to be very picky about where we choose to be "extravagant." That is why I buy organic meat (mainly for my kids) and we buy organic carrots just because the others are nasty after you have tried organic and we juice them when we can afford it. I buy organic Romaine lettuce as it isn't that bad. I buy local and farmer's market as much as I can.
But otherwise, unless I find a great sale or a good price, we can't buy organic. But I read labels and buy food without added sugar, corn syrup, preservatives, etc.

The microwave reformulates the cells in your food and kills it more than stove top cooking. I just don't cook in it as dead food, organic or not, is pretty useless to my live cells and I don't like being in the room with the micro-waves.  :o

KristaD! We need to talk!  :)

Craig:
I agree Carol, we sometimes forget how much medicine has helped us and take it for granted.

Unlike our forefathers we don't have to worry about the horrible disease of smallpox and polio.  Many, many died of the horrible death of caused by tetanus.  Typhoid and a host of other childhood illnesses are nearly a thing of the past.  

Does the medical establishment have its problems?  Definitely, but we should not throw out the baby with the bath water.  And we should thank God that these diseases are something less we have to worry about now.

My 3 cents
