Meandering Monday - Eternal Health Care - Martin Wiles

Welcome to Meandering Monday, where we take a trip back to an earlier post and enjoy it again.

This truth gives them confidence that they have eternal life, which God—who does not lie—promised them before the world began. Titus 1:2 NLT

We needed it, but couldn’t get it.

My wife and I were among the thousands who had no health insurance. After five years of working at a place that offered it, I had left for a position that didn’t offer it. Due to health concerns, my wife had also resigned her position where she had also had health insurance.

Finding a physician who would see uninsured patients and affording him or her if we could find them—as well as the medicine we needed—challenged us. We postponed needed surgeries and other preventative procedures and welcomed generic medication. After a long four years and new government regulations, we finally received long-term health care at a reasonable cost. Not having to worry about paying full price for surgeries, doctor visits, and medicine refreshed us.

Paul also speaks about a health care plan—one that’s free, doesn’t terminate with a change of jobs, doesn’t have a co-pay, and doesn’t disqualify based on pre-existing conditions. The name of the plan is Eternal Life, and it’s free to all who sign up.

God doesn’t lie about his plan or place disqualifying clauses in small print at the bottom of pages no one reads. He is open and upfront. The cost of the plan has already been paid by God himself. The only requirement is that we sign on through faith, obedience, and a promise to love him with all our hearts, souls, and minds. When we build our lives on faith in Jesus Christ, eternal life is ours for the asking. We can trust the premium’s promise because it’s underwritten by a God who doesn’t lie.

What long-term health care plan have you signed up for?

Prayer: Father, we thank You for the assurance of eternal life with You.
