FAITH

Medicine and spirituality used to be linked in ancient cultures, and physicians and their patients are once again beginning to embrace the two together as part of a holistic approach to health. Recent research has shown that people who practice religion have lower rates of depression and a lower incidence of high blood pressure. Other studies show that religion acts as a buffer against physical and mental pain Thus, it is hard to ignore the fact that healing includes both the body and the soul. As Tryon Edwards once wrote: “All science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws-a thing which can never be demonstrated.”

“Faith is to believe, on the word of God, what we do not see, and its reward is to see and enjoy what we believe. ”
