Do you have true faith--meaning you are okay if you or your loved ones aren't healed? If not, listen as I share a personal story of how I worked toward that ideal.

Episode Discussion Points

• The question of “Do I have the faith not to be healed?”
• A story in my life where I realized that I didn’t have that kind of faith yet when Nathan was diagnosed with autism.
• How I realized I needed to change and have more true faith in God.
• The “But if Not” clause & story
• My very trial led me to my knees over and over again because I didn’t have the ability to get through such a heavy trial on my own. I needed God.

How to Develop Faith “Not to Be Healed”

1. Recognize you need better, truer faith
2. Work to gain that kind of faith

• By talking to the Lord openly and honestly in prayer (that you aren’t there yet)
• Following the example of the Savior to submit your will to His
• Ask God to teach you what this process of gaining true faith looks like for you
• Listen
• Keep going one day at a time
• Fortify yourself by reading God’s word—especially the life of Jesus Christ.

1. Remember to keep hope in the ultimate goal of eternal life with God with perfect, whole and resurrected bodies for us and our loved ones.

Bible Verse SharedMatthew 26: 39 “And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.”
