Dr. Wilks Hubbard relied for years on an iron will to get through medical training and to carry on a very demanding practice. Even after he committed his life to Jesus Christ, he still relied on his strong constitution. That seemed to work until Lyme disease invaded his body.

    What do you do if your healthy, if you're trained in medicine, if you're taking care of a lot of sick people, and you yourself get very very sick? For a long time, the doctors could not even diagnose what was wrong with Wilks. He was in and out of the hospital, he lost a lot of weight, he was fearing he would never practice medicine again. Finally, Wilks began to get well.

    He says about that time, when he was forced to lay in bed, that he spent a lot of time reading scripture, praying, and thinking about his life. He's learned something that's transformed his life: Sometimes, a man has to be torn down, in order to be built back to the proper dependence upon God.

    What about you? Have your trials driven you down to where you realize that you don't have the strength to cope, but the Lord Jesus Christ can give you that strength? I'd like to help you if you would like to rely more on his power. Please call me for my free book "A New Beginning" at 1 (800) 759-3300.
