Power to heal.

It's good anytime one can break an addiction, or overcome something through will-power. Non-destructive behavior is always better than the alternative. But we must never confuse it with trusting the redemptive, supernatural power of Christ in the resurrection to restore me and heal me. I've little passion for “fixed” marriages or behaved, self-control. Jesus didn't come to offer a sanctified nudge to the self-reliant.
