Your Question:

Can I still be a good Christian with all these medical bills?

Answer:

My friend, I can see that you're struggling with the weight of medical bills, wondering if you can still be a good Christian despite the financial burden. Let me tell you, as someone who has walked through similar waters, it's not about the technical details of the bills or the financial crisis. It's about keeping your eyes on what God wants to do through you and those around you.

When we face uncertainty, we must look back to our life purpose and ask if this new step of faith will help us accomplish it. In this case, it's not about the medical bills, but about trusting in God's goodness and provision. Remember, God is faithful and just, not just merciful and kind. He forgives all our health issues, and we should act like it's true, just like David did in Psalm 103.

As Christians, we must not be satisfied with earthly blessings alone, thinking that's a measure of God's goodness. Instead, we should train our eyes on His character and promises. When hardships come, as they inevitably will, we must look to God's goodness, not just what we see. Job's story is a testament to this. He had everything, but when Satan took it away, he didn't lose faith. Neither should we.
