The oil light was permanently on in my cousins car, he was sick of it glaring at him, so he cut the wire to the light. Many of you are saying that is stupid, the light is telling you to look at the oil in the motor.
Yet so often we do this exact thing. We get a headache and take a pain killer, but then do not search for the cause.
We respond with anger, then make an excuse that we've had a big day….
Some years ago I went to the Doctor about a rash I had, she offered some cream for it. I said to her that is treating the symptom, what is the cause? She did not know the cause, so I asked her to find out and she said she could offer me the cream, but would not seek out the cause. (I did not get the cream, I found the cause).
Sickness is a symptom. What is the cause.
Many doctors and natural health practitioners only treat the symptom.
Society generally has become focused on treating symptom. This is being reinforced through media.
What about government policies, are they addressing the cause of the issue. Take the pothole in the road. It will be filled (treat the symptom), but another will appear in the same place or close by. Is the foundation deep under the road properly drained and compacted?
So many of us are symptom focused, that we do not even think to look for the cause. Maybe you frequently suffer fear, this is a symptom.
To grow in our relationships and especially with God, we need to be thankful for the symptom, it is our friend, it is telling you and me that there is a problem, then we go and search out the cause.
Comment with some symptom and possible causes.
