17Fools, in their rebellious ways,
and through their iniquities, suffered affliction.
18They loathed all food
and drew near to the gates of death.
— Psalm 107:17-18

Illustration of Psalm 107:17-21 MESSAGE -- Some of you were sick because you'd lived a bad life, your bodies feeling the effects of your sin... so miserable you thought you'd be better off dead. Then you called out to GOD in your desperate condition; he got you out in the nick of time. He spoke the word that healed you, that pulled you back from the brink of death. So thank GOD for his marvelous love, for his miracle mercy to the children he loves.
