I was watching a panel of health experts on the Trinity Broadcast Network some time ago who made the following point.  If a Christian gets a cut they expect it to heal.  But if they get cancer, heart disease, or diabetes, they do not see it in the same light.  The body was designed by God to heal itself.  If given what it needs, we can expect it to do just that.
