Often, I see the body o Christ put so much into pursuing God or healing. With great boldness and passion and persistence, we cry out to God, begging for physical healing. And in these prayers, there is often a tiny P.S. added at the end where we say, "If it be your will."

 

But shouldn't we switch that around?

 

Shouldn't we cry out to God wit boldness and passion and persistence in a prayer that says, "God, would you please accomplish your will? Would you give me a willing heart to embrace your plan and your purpose? Would you mold me into a vessel that you can use to accomplish what you have in mind?" and then, perhaps, we could ass a tiny P.S. that says, "If that includes healing, we will be grateful."
