The Human Body As A Self-Healing Organism: An Interview with Kathy Bates

Christian Biz Owners On Fire

God cares about our spiritual life and our physical life. He created the human body, and he is pleased when we enjoy health and vigor. But in this world, our bodies endure sickness and pain. Sometimes we abuse our own bodies, but often our ailments occur because -- well, we don't always know why, nor does God promise that we will understand why. When mainstream medicine and all else fails, one could only go down on his/her knees and pray for healing. After all, the Bible tells us to pray for whatever we need, and that includes freedom from pain. And this is exactly what our guest in this episode did two decades ago. When her health failed she did what most Christians do, went forward for prayer and began seeing doctors. After lots of prayer and 11 or 12 doctors in 18 months, she canceled all her medical appointments and began chasing God for answers. He showed up and took her on an amazing journey and taught her that it was pointless to heal someone who would only return to their diet, environment, and relationships that made them ill in the first place. She hasn't been to a mainstream medical doctor for an illness since 1989 because God taught her how to care for her body and how to hear His voice guiding her through this maze of life. Hers is a powerful story of healing. Kathy Bates is a licensed massage therapist utilizing many tools to bring improved health and appearance to her clients. She is the author of the book, Getting Well God’s Way, a personal account of her healing journey from several diseases.
