Why Doesn't God Heal Everybody?

  • Jesus is a miracle worker. He worked incredible “signs and wonders” during his 33 years on earth, and he continues to stun us with modern miracles to this day. He has healed physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. But if he has shown us that he can do this… why hasn’t he healed everyone?
    If you’ve asked God “why haven’t you healed me,” Fr. Mike has a video for you today.

      Leaving the protestant faith and being confirmed into the Catholic church was the best decision our family has ever made. My oldest son was 14 at the time, too. He loves it and it's been a beautiful gift as a mother to see him grow spiritually. I'll keep you in my prayers.

    I needed to hear this message! My daughter passed away in 2006 from a rare form of cancer. I was told that maybe I didn’t pray hard enough. That hit me like a ton of bricks. My husband was told this happened to her because we weren’t good Christian’s. I’m so grateful to Father Mike for posting this, God bless!

    I question why some people are not healed and it's very difficult to accept. I know a beautiful devout Catholic family and the mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in her early 30s. She had just had her 5th child. She was the most special person I have ever known in life. If there was ever a living saint, it was she. She prayed. We all prayed. All the time. For her. And she died, leaving behind a loving husband and 5 children. I can't help but question WHY? WHY? WHY? We need people like her on this earth. They were leaders in the church and in their community. Why take someone like this away from her family and away from all of us? Such a good and loving woman .....and she suffered terribly. That is an understatement. She suffered so much and was faithful until the end. I just don't understand and it bothers me to this day.

The best Christmas present ever! I miss her terribly, but I know she is home now with the LORD. Thank you LORD for giving me those twenty more years. The LORD is truly good indeed.❤ Thank you Father Mike for reminding me how blessed I was to get more time. ❤ It has been a difficult journey the last five years. The holy spirit is speaking through you. 🕊️ And the timing is perfect. I needed to be reminded how much God loves us. Bless you always Father Mike your BIY, CIY, and videos have given me my hope back. I will keep praying for you as you do for me!

    I've had a benign arrhythmia for about 13 years. Recently, they started getting more frequent again. The beautiful thing is that they had disappeared for almost 2 and a half years. I got to LIVE without fear, and I never expected that would happen again. I really enjoyed that gift God gave me. He let me see what life was like without fear, anxiety, and uncomfortableness. Now that the arrhythmia has flared back up, I look back at all the wonderful things I experienced, and I am grateful. I couldn't be more thankful for the miracle God performed, and I am going to continue to pray for strength to handle whatever comes my way. I have other illnesses, but they've all brought me closer to God. I'm still uncomfortable with being sick, but I'm also at peace. It's my path. I don't know how to explain the feeling. I just know that everything is going to be ok even if it gets difficult. Thank you for the message, Father Mike. God bless everyone! ❤

    Agree Father, I needed, spiritual and emotional healing, during Lent, after much emotional struggle, after many years, He took me through a period of purification. It entailed confession, self examination....it hurt....but now, still in the Easter period, I'm a different person. I'm 46 years old, my hurt started at age 4, God healed me, I asked....the difference is that this time it's something I really wanted

    I believe that sickness, even great Illness can help us learn unconditional love for God.
    Some love upon conditions, they will only love if their requests or desires are fulfilled.
    ( Like a bride who will only love her husband on the condition that he buys her everything she ever wanted)
    That's Not Love.
    God is not an ATM nor a genie.
    We pray to conform to His will, not vice versa.

    It’s true. When I got sick and I still am, I got very close to God and very inquisitive about who God is. I hope he deliver me from this situation and I just ask him to give me strength for every day. I guess we don’t have any option other than surrendering to his will.

    My priest said yes you would cling to Jesus more if this is what you really want do you know Jesus better within your illness. He says the Catholic teaching is that you can be a victim soul, so that you may pray for other stores that are struggling and I was sick or not living Faith the way they should. I am there a good opportunity to pray for the souls in purgatory. I just wish I could learn to be more gracious in my sickness and injuries, so that I may help more souls perfectly which only God does things perfect my hope is that my prayers are still excepting, even though I am weak many times when I struggle. my prayer and hope is that I may help my family friends and yes, even strangers at this time.

    I always limit my petitions to God with "be at your wheel". I try to remind myself with each petition that God can, and does say no. It may be because of the way I was taught, or maybe because of chronic depression, I have Always believed or feel that I have been taught to believe, that suffering is a great gift. I have been taught to believe that suffering is some thing that should be embraced at all times. Almost we should not seek to mitigate suffering. But, I have to admit, that line of thought or belief takes a level of strength that sometimes seems out of reach. It has led me many times to believe that this is a wretched horrible life that we are meant to endure for the sake of purification and growth. What I wish could be talked about more, is practical every day ways to embrace the endless suffering with joy.

    Sometimes God takes a whole lifetime to help a person, people, families; all of us. Sometimes it's very quick. Sometimes it takes time, but the healing still happens. But it almost never happens the way we ourselves expect it to happen. And. True. Sometimes the greatest grace is that God wants the suffering to continue. Thanks, Father Schmitz.

I will live my life as well as i can for now and try to get closer to God while alive. I do pray that any bad symptoms come later in life so i can raise my children. If not, well my kids will just have to learn to help more early on. God has a plan. I wont suffer in heaven.

    I personally know people who have cancer but still live for decades.
    I also know people who have cancer but died.
    The difference?
    Those who survive changed from being self-focused to others-focused - they truly changed from the inside.
    That goes in line with God being all about love and helping others, NOT about self.
    If you are useful to the world, He will help you live so you can continue to help the world.
    But it must come from your being level.
    You cannot pretend to help, i.e. just going through the motions.
    You must BECOME self-less - it's not about you!

  • @Ern-76Hf194

    Jesus heals everyone.
    Matthew 12:15 (NIV): "Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who were ill."
    Mark 6:56 (NIV): "And wherever he went-into villages, towns or countryside-they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed."
    The factor is that the believer has to have unflinching faith that God has already healed him.
    Mark 11:24 (NIV):
    "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."

    Saints's sufferings is the key. Those complete with their sufferings what the body of Christ, the church itself, needs to be saved. The church is pure and saint but it's formed by sinners. Every sufferings goes to our ultimate good and for St. Tommaso d'Aquino it's used for two main reasons: atonement or the Glory of God. It's hard to understand it but we are called to accept it.

    Jesus told His disciples to go, preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven, heal the sick, set people free from demons etc. How many of our shepherds follow this commandment? Those, who got the power to forgive sins and make people free from evil, also got this power to heal the sick. And they were told to do it. When the Apostles couldn't help the poor boy tormented by the devil, Jesus didn't blamed the boy or his father. He clearly pointed out that the apostles failed, because they didn't fast (Sukkot feast is a time of festive celebration, not fasting) and pray. If Jesus didn't intervene, the boy would remain in torment. And it wasn't God's will. There is a huge lesson to learn from this story.

    35 years ago I was diagnosed with an inoperable, malignant brain tumor. 7 mostly emergency surgeries, over 2+ years just to keep me alive… bad time. Best thing that ever happened to me. God’s timing was/is perfect. The tumor one day, with no medical intervention, intercession from Blessed Mother, and the tumor went away. 35 years, 10 kids (fostered and/or adopted) later… I’ll repeat, God’s timing was perfect.
    I Wouldn’t wish it on anyone, but for me, that tumor changed many peoples lives.

    True. As someone who is potentially suffering from small bowel cancer, just had it removed last week, I have to trust God and Jesus will take care of me. As much as I would love it to be in this world, I would pick His world anytime. Both is preferred of course. I also had suffered an accident while I was a young adult, preventing me from ever working. While God may not have seen fit to heal my injury, he did ensure I was taken care of otherwise. As bad as I am, and God knows I am so far from perfect, I will always have faith in God and Jesus.

    You spoke to my mind, my heart and my soul. I truly believe that God calls us home when it’s the optimum time for our soul. I volunteered in the pediatric unit of our local hospital. I was sitting in the ICU at the bedside of a toddler who had just undergone open-heart surgery. Her parents needed a break for a cup of coffee. Concurrently, there was a 15-year old girl in the same room who had sustained multiple injuries in a motor vehicle accident. The nurses were changing shifts and giving report. The 15-year old had remained stable for the last 12 hours. I remember saying a prayer, “Heavenly Father, please heal her.” Not 5 minutes went by and this young girl started to crash. I remember crying out in my mind , Lord NO! And, I could hear His response in my heart, “It’s better that I bring her home now than to have her not make it home at all.” So, I remain trusting in God that if we live 1 day, 1 year, 25, 50, 75 or 100 years, it is but a mere dot on the timeline of eternity. Jesus I trust in you.

    Wasn’t that the way ancient Hebrew traditions used to see the action of God in the world? And - if I’m not wrong - didn’t Jesus say “you’re saved” only to one of the 10 lepers, the one who thanked him, therefore highlighting the fact that his REAL healing is not the visible one?

    I have asked the Lord to heal me for so many years, but He has chosen not to. I feel like it is as Paul experienced my " thorn in the flesh". The Lord has said His grace is sufficient for me. I also feel He is glorified in it. The demons look and say " even in her suffering, yet she trusts, clings and longs for Him !" He is glorified as we persevere in Him, and a crown awaits. On my bad days I feel it hinders me from having the fullest life I can, and the enemy tells me " see ! that doesn't honor Him ! ".........I can only trust His mercy.

      I understand. I have the same feelings.That my severe anxiety prevents me from doing more to help my family and husband. I feel more like a burden. Sometimes it feels so bad , totally consumes me mentally and such bad physical symptoms associated with it. I haven’t been able to go to Mass regularly because, I had Covid in February, got a bad sinus infection that took 3 rounds of antibiotics, severe cough that has hurt my ribs and back for months, and also my anxiety holds me back. I have degenerative discs in my neck and back since I was 29. Sometimes, on bad days I pray, Lord please heal me, I can’t do this anymore. I am 68 yrs old now. Sometimes I feel like the devil is doing this, so that I can’t go to Mass or receive Penance and communion. On better days I thank the Lord for this day and pray for Him to help me to be strong, to give me the ability to do these things and to show me the way to make this possible. We are supposed to find joy in our suffering, which I find hard. But I do say sometimes, I offer this up for the souls of sinners. And have noticed that the pain does not seem as bad. I know we just need to wait and trust in Jesus. As Jesus said to little Simon, I could heal you, but if I don’t heal you, people can see that even if you are not healed, you can say to these people that I still have joy in my heart for God. I still have faith and believe. Jesus said, just wait a little longer and then you will be running.

    I needed to hear why Jesus heals & then the illness may return again. I just lost my son who passed on May 14 of 2023. It was a Mother's Day. Both my son & I are very close to our Jesus. We were prayer-partners & we prayed for my son's healing daily. He suffered from a mental illness. Jesus came to him in a dream & told him he would be dying soon. He shared the dream with me & we talked about it. My son only asked for His love & mercy. He died about two weeks after his dream & it was a sudden & quick death. I still do not understand it. I'm going through bereavement sessions with good Catholic leaders & a deacon at my church to be able to cope with life after my son's death. He was a young man & most kind hearted. I love him & miss him so very much.

    He covers us spiritually, yes, but why wouldn't he just pysically heal us as well? It's not like a spiderman, "everybody gets one" thing - what's so hard about fixing my life so that I no longer have earthy suffering either? Doesn't the physical reflect the spiritual? What do I do if my physical suffering is driving me further away from him? What if I can't accept the terrible hand I've been dealt and don't want to live anymore? What do I do if he keeps saying "no" to every single prayer to the point that my life isn't worth living?
    None of this helps. None of this is an answer. None of this makes anything ok.
    What could he possibly be doing in/with my suffering? How am I possibly supposed to believe/feel like he loves me despite all this pain? Why would he let these things happen to me? What did I do wrong?
