I know that those old feelings of rage will never<br />
come back.” His observation was correct. “In spite<br />
of the usual ups and downs of life, the rage has<br />

leg again,” she says.<br />

Focus on Prayer Partners<br />
When asked what advice he has for people<br />
who learn they have a serious illness, Dr.<br />
Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Words:<br />
The Power of Prayer and the Practice of Medicine,<br />
simply states: “Get on as many prayer lists as<br />
you can.” As a physician and researcher into the<br />
link between prayer and healing, Dr. Dossey is<br />
convinced that the prayers of others are instrumental<br />
in the healing process. This, of course,<br />
is not only a scientific view, but one found in<br />
Scripture. Writing about the prayer of faith, the<br />
apostle James says: “Is anyone among you suffering?<br />
Let him pray.… Is anyone among you<br />
sick? Let him call for the elders of the church,<br />
and let them pray over him, anointing him with<br />
oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of<br />
faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise<br />
him up”(James 5:13-15). When you are in need<br />
of healing, don’t hesitate to ask others to include<br />
you in their prayers.<br />
