DangerouslySweet: Sorry I missed this first time around Patrick. Looks like some of the readers took the title 'Medical Breakthrough' quite literally in associating it with pills, drugs and a few less conventional herbal remedies. It is nice to see that some have identified who or what their higher power is.......although I'm not sure I've ever seen it as a pacman-like emoticon with an orange blob falling from it's mouth. It's also nice to see that some read, and unfortunately, some don't. Or did I miss something? Was there more after 'and let you meet life's challenges with confidence and courage.'? Was there something that said you will be guarenteed to never be faced with a problem in life ever again?
I liked your response to what some others have responded...no, he didn't "guarantee" anything like that, btw...that's why I chose "meditation" as my answer. The Christian definition of God isn't mine, thereby does not remove guilt. Acceptance of one for who one is and realizing that you can't change the past, and acknowledging that one is not perfect...those things can help alleviate guilt though. Afterall, that emotion doesn't do any good. Through meditation I have searched within my soul, found my inner strength and inner peace, and continued with a life that I strive daily to improve.
My apologies for intruding, though, if this was supposed to be a Christian thread, or if you were looking only for a Christ- or God-based answer.
