Can we really gain complete control over our body and its functions?
As an ‘out-of-control’ skier, this writer found that when he put his skiing lessons into practice he stopped being afraid, gained control and skiing was fun. Years later when he had a big ‘whack’ to his head he put the spiritual lessons he’d learnt about divine control into practice and this prayer brought about an instant and complete healing.
"Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
Isaiah 41 : 10
