Suffering Is A Call To Repentance

“O LORD,” I prayed, “have mercy on me. Heal me, for I have sinned against you.” [Psalm 41.4]

If there is still any doubt about the relationship between sin and health, this verse makes a formidable argument that reveals the fact of the matter: Suffering is the result of sin.

Why don't we simply accept the facts as the Bible repeatedly gives them and get to repenting? Because we are proud. Too proud.

Father, I am going to keep it short today because the message to me is simple. My suffering is my call to repentance.
