God is our healer and our health is often a trial to us. Where our faith is, is important to God. God promises healing to the sick. We don’t always understand why some are never healed and die. What we must come to understand is that if we have faith in God and His promises, someday He will heal all sickness and take death totally away from our lives. His promise is that if we have faith in Him we will be in His family in His Kingdom for eternity.
