The Bible: A Source of Comfort for the Sick
It is worth remembering that the Bible is not just for the rich, but for the poor as well. It is not for the righteous only, but for sinners as well.
In a similar way, the Bible is not just for the healthy—it is also for the sick. It is a book set apart to do so much, including comforting the sick.
Be it physical sickness, spiritual distress, or any other affliction, the Bible has a vital part to play in aiding a quick recovery and bringing peace. (Note: The word "Bible" here refers to the Holy Scriptures.)
As a sick person, when you read John 9:1-7, what happens? It comforts you with the knowledge that God has a purpose for you, even in your current condition.
Below are more comforting Bible verses for the sick which you should meditate upon.
