<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">If you are ill, your illness is looked after with so much anxiety and fear, you are given so much care that you forget to take help from the One who can help you and you fall into a vicious circle and take a morbid interest in your illness. </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#0066cc;"><u><ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/15/worry-and-bother-about-illness#p22</ref></u></span>
 
<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">You must learn not to identify with your body and treat it as a young child who needs to be convinced that it must not fear. </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#0066cc;"><u><ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/15/darshan-messages#p7</ref></u></span>
<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">First, not to want to be ill, and then not to be afraid of illness. You must neither attract it nor tremble. You must not want illness at all. But you must not because of fear not want it; you must not be afraid; you must have a calm certitude and a complete trust in the power of the Grace to shelter you from everything, and then think of something else, not be concerned about this any longer. When you have done these two things, refusing the illness with all your will and infusing a confidence which completely eliminates the fear in the cells of the body, and then busying yourself with something else, not thinking any longer about the illness, forgetting that it exists... there, if you know how to do that, you may even be in contact with people who have contagious diseases, and yet you do not catch them. But you must know how to do this. </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#0066cc;"><u><ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/07/11-may-1955#p13</ref></u></span>
