While shopping today, I happened to run into a Christian friend who is a medical doctor. In our varied and assundry topics of conversation, we touched on the prescribing of prescription drugs for those suffering from depression. She mentioned that, quite often, patients will say what a relief it was once they started taking anti-depressant medication. They went from daily trying to "hold it together," to having stable emotions each day.
I asked her, "How does that fit in with having the joy of the Lord?" She did not have any pat answers, but said that God uses modern medicine to help people in many ways.
TV~ (Today's Verse)
He healeth those that are broken in heart, and giveth them medicine to heal their sickness. [Psalm 147:3]
