The worried well manifesto

  • I am a unique creation.
  • My creator is the object of my worship, not the life or health given me.
  • I value life and wellness because it is a gift.
  • Care for my body is a response of gratitude.
  • I am not defined by my medical condition nor by my risk of developing a medical condition.
  • Gratitude compels me to be an conduit of healing in my community.

  1. I find points 4 & 5 to be especially poignant. I definitely feel that all too often the satisfaction of our relationship with God is dependent more on what we get out of it; that it fits a self-determined idea of what our life should be and what will make us happy. He is just another commodity to be manipulated and negotiated with to achieve our end.
