One of the Mercies from God is that He wants to encourage us in our times of infirmity. All of us face times of infirmity of various sorts. This does not mean that God does not love us or care about us, of course He cares about us. Maybe He will give us a miracle cure for our infirmity, maybe not. Maybe He Himself will comfort us through our time of infirmity or even send other people to minister to us. Finally, the Holy Spirit will help us in our time of infirmity. We are not alone!
