Monday Musings ... is religion good for your health

Is faith in God helpful to you? According to several studies, faith in God is a benefit to those who believe and trust God. 

I trust God to answer prayers... It may be yes, no, or wait.

"Research has repeatedly shown that people of faith report feeling better and healthier."

In what ways? 

  • lower blood pressure
  • reduced risk of heart disease 
  • enhanced over well-being  
  • lower rates of depression
  • faster recovery from illness
