The origin of the word “dose” is the Greek word “to give.” It literally means “a giving.” By the 1600’s, a dose had come to mean “a quantity of medicine given to heal or relieve suffering.” The healing ministry of Jesus has a long history of inspiring people to seek God’s healing. In cases of physical infirmity and mental anguish, the benefit of daily prayer and meditation has been shown to be effective in aiding the healing process. For extranged parents, a few minutes of spiritual reflection each day can be a dose of healing with many benefits and no side effects.
