Jesus-The Great Physician

           I have started to look at Jesus in another way lately. I should have looked at Him in that way a long time ago. My life might be just a little better off if I did. The way I have started to look at Him is as "The Great Physician". That title came to me when I was at a Drs. Appointment earlier on this month.
         I was honestly listening to everything the doctor was saying to me but in my mind it didn't make sense. He went on about the meds. I was "supposely" taking and if we needed to up it in the winter months let him know. Then he also went on again about how Important excise was while on the meds. He wanted me to join a gym and do some weights and things like that.
         There are a lot of things wrong with those comments. One: I am not taking the meds. Anymore. I am on Plexus and more natural pills. Two: I know I need to eat right for me. I usually live the cheap lifestyle. Three: it's not my brain but it is my gut. I firmly and truly believe that. Four: I don't have the money for a gym membership right now. Last: I am also using oils. Three different kinds of oils. They are peppermint, lemon, and lavender and I use them while I am going to sleep at night.
           It is kind of like I am taking care of myself. I have all of these ideas around me but I pick out the best ones for me. Since being off of my anxiety meds. For about 3 months now, I feel happier and healthier. It is like I have the wisdom to know what to do and when to do them. Even though, as I am writing this right now, I have a major headache and have no idea why but that doesn't matter. It is really strange because it is like I am getting the wisdom from Jesus. He is putting the people and choices in my path that I need to take and make. He is giving me the strength to get through each day while I am trying out new things. I will tell you that when you switch pills, it takes your body time to get use to them and there could be some side effects. 
           Yet while, I am trying all of these different things, I have never given up on prayer. The more I see that I need it, the more I do it. That is really the best medicine when everything comes down to it. I will say that the pills and things that I buy sometimes are experience but they work and are healthier for me then the pills the drs. give me. I would rather pay for something that is natural and costs a lot. Then something that is just full of chemicals and cost a lot more. My health, lately, has been a journey and still is in a way. I am still trying to find and stick to the diet that is good for my body and that I can make and afford at this moment in my life. I'm trying to eat balanced meals and cut out on the coffees and candy and other unhealthy stuff. 
          I am trying to eat things with more probiotics in them like yogurt and all the fermented foods I can like pickles. I am also trying to eat more fresh veggies and fruits. It is funny too because I got a library card at the start of last year to check out books for the children where I work so I could read them some books but lately I have been checking out healthier cookbooks and books about having a healthier gut just for me. It is all about clean eating. I even made an amazon list on my own account of the cookbooks and books I wanted to buy when I have the money. It was just strange because when I was at that certain drs. appointment, the light came on. 
         It was like the drs didn't know anything about me but Jesus knew exactly what I needed to get through each day. Jesus knew exactly what I needed for my own body and He lead me to those things and still is today. I am defiantly learning about will power and self discipline through all of this.  I never once thought of me of being that organic type but if I had to put me under a food group that is the group I would put me under. I know from growing up and now that that is the best way to live. I hope this makes sense because I am writing it while my head is hurting like I said a little while back.               
         I can add another name to my list of what Jesus is to me. He is my Love, Daddy, Provider, Rest, Peace, and Great Physician.
