God is a God of healing and mercy, but we cannot box him into a corner to answer our prayers just when and how we would like. While we await the healer, we need keys to understanding what God is doing right now, even while we continue to suffer. This book is designed to offer further Bible teaching and practical insights and suggestions that have grown out of the experiences of over 12 years of severe pain, several life-threatening surgeries, long periods in hospitals and intensive care units, and near-death encounters. '...thorough, readable, realistic, hopeful and necessary. It powerfully holds together a conviction of healing and the grace of God through suffering.'
