This is a back-dated post.
When Joash fell sick two weeks ago, I had a tough time trying to feed him his meds. At first, I added them into his milk but he wised-up and refused to even drink a drop of milk for nearly the whole week! I cajoled and coaxed, whipping out all sorts of tactics that usually worked. However, he still refused medicine. Finally, after much prayer, I resorted to force-feeding by pinching his nose and dunking the meds down his throat while I pinned him down.
The amazing thing is, after a few days of that, Joash suddenly became very cheerful whenever I said, "Time for medicine!" In fact, he even exclaimed, "Yay!!! Eat Medicine!" by the last two days of his illness and ran to sit at the table with eagerness to be fed by me! What's even more surprising was that he asked to take medicine himself before he went to school for the first time since he fell ill!
Praise God for He cares for us and answers our prayers! I actually feared that after he has recovered, Joash would ask for medicine cos he seems to like it so much. However, the amazing thing is, he didn't at all. Maybe he understood the concept of taking meds only when one is sick??? I dun really know for sure but it is such a miracle to me how this medicine saga turned out.

Mark 10:27
"Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible,
but not with God; all things are possible with God.'"
