4000 Diseases

I just listened to a really smart person explain that there are 4000 diseases that have a known molecular structure. Two-hundred and fifty of those diseases have a drug that cures them.  Imagine going to work knowing that you have 3,750 discoveries left to go.  Imagine knowing that each discovery takes about 25 years to come to completion.  That's almost 94,000 years! Pack a lunch.

What about the 4,000 diseases that cause distance between us and the Creator? Don't we spend much of life trying to ignore, out run or forget what is wrong?  Aren't we trying to discover new ways to be at peace?  Isn't there a constant effort to find out what's wrong and do our best to fix it?

Easter.

There are over 4,000 diseases that have attached themselves to our soul, but there is one Repair.  There are countless sins and faults that try to keep us from knowing God, but there is one Antidote.

I guess a lot of life is knowing what's wrong and how to fix it.  God does.  I can't.

By the way, 94,000 years aren't needed.  One moment.  One step.  One Savior.

Healed,

Pastor Dave
