Hay
una diferencia entre el dolor que sentía antes de la cirugía y el dolor que
siento después de la cirugía. El primero era un dolor de enfermedad. El segundo
es un dolor de sanidad. La cirugía no me sanó. Solo posicionó mi cuerpo (nervios,
huesos y músculos)para iniciar un proceso de sanidad y restauración.
¡Ahora
entiendo! Muchas de las intervenciones de Dios en ciertos momentos y
circunstancias de mi vida no me sanaron o solucionaron mis problemas. Lo que
Dios siempre hizo, como cirujano, fue poner todo en su lugar para iniciar
procesos de restauración y sanidad en mi vida.
El
dolor siempre está presente, porque es el que recuerda que algo no está bien y
no estuvo bien. La pregunta es: ¿Qué dolor estás sintiendo? ¿El de la
enfermedad o el de la sanidad?
No
podemos evitar el sufrimiento, pero si podemos decidir que tipo de dolor
sufrimos. Hay que dejar que Dios haga esa cirugía que nos permite iniciar el
proceso de sanidad y restauración en nuestro cuerpo, en nuestra alma y/o en
nuestro espíritu.

There is a difference
between the pain before surgery and the pain I feel after surgery. The first
was the pain of sickness. The second is the pain of healing. The surgery did
not heal me. It only positioned my body (nerves, bones and muscles) to start a
process of healing and restoration.
Now I understand! Many of
God's interventions in certain circumstances and events of my life did not heal
or solve my problems. What God always did, as a surgeon, was to put everything
in place to start a process of restoration and healing in my life.
The pain is always present,
it is the reminder that something is not right or it was not right. The
question is: What pain are you feeling? It is sickness pain or healing pain?
We can’t avoid suffering,
but we can decide what kind of pain we suffer. We must let God do the surgery
that allows us to begin the process of healing and restoration in our body, our
soul and/or our spirit.
Now
I am glad I sent it, not because it hurt you, but because the pain caused you
to repent and change your ways. It was the kind of sorrow God wants his people
to have, so you were not harmed by us in any way. For the kind of sorrow God
wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There’s
no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance,
results in spiritual death. Just see what this godly sorrow produced in you!
Such earnestness, such concern to clear yourselves, such indignation, such
alarm, such longing to see me, such zeal, and such a readiness to punish wrong.
You showed that you have done everything necessary to make things right. 2
Corinthians 7:9-11 NLT
