Illness can be a difficult and disturbing experience, challenging us not only physically and mentally, but also on a deeply spiritual level. In times of illness, the words or strength we need to pray can often seem beyond our reach and we may struggle to feel the presence of God in our lives.
Master, the One You Love is Ill explores what it means to pray as you can, using the resources you have, at a time when the closeness of God is needed more than ever. Drawn from the author’s own experience of finding God in the darkness of illness, the simple reflections within gently guide the reader through the byways of the Holy Land to meet the Lord Jesus who seeks out the lost, the lonely and the ill.
