Healing the Sick

Imagine a person
Who had someone ill in his household.
What would he do?
He would go to the doctor and ask of
The doctor to be a good emissary of the Creator,
And heal the sick one.

Normally, he would
Turn to a professor.
Then he’d say,
Surely he will be a good emissary of the Creator
And will heal the sick one.

And if the professor could not help as well,
Then the professors might deliberate,
Perhaps together, through their consultation,
They would find some remedy for the ill one.

If that still did not help,
Then they would naturally
Turn to the Creator and say,
"Dear Lord, if You don’t help me,
No one will help me.
We have already been to all of the great doctors,
Who are Your emissaries,
And not one could help me.
I have no one to turn to except You,
For You to help me."

And then, when he is healed,
The person says,
"Only the Creator himself helped me,"
And not through an emissary.
