On sickness of the body

 
When you see your body wasted away through sickness, do not murmur against God, but say, The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the Name of the Lord, Job 1:21.  You are accustomed to look upon your body as upon your own inalienable property, but that is quite wrong, because your body is God's edifice.
