A Book of Comfort for Those in Sickness
P. B. Power
To help those who are in sickness the author, P. B. Power, does not
under-estimate the strength of these hindrances to comfort. Far from
offering superficial advice, his position is that no comfort is obtainable
unless there be, first, true knowledge of ourselves and, second, right
knowledge of God.

While illness brings time to think, the
natural tendency of our thoughts may not be comforting. Sickness may end
activities we once enjoyed; it will make us dependent upon others: and feelings
of pain, or of uselessness, or of anxiety about the future, may be very real. To
help those who are in sickness the author does not under-estimate the strength
of these hindrances to comfort. Far from offering superficial advice his
position is that no comfort is obtainable unless there be, first, true knowledge
of ourselves and second, right knowledge of God. His main aim is to state what
this knowledge needs to be, and to show how with faith in God's character and
presence suffering need not be a dark experience. |
