Awaken The Healer In You
I have a very important announcement to make: God has given you the power to heal yourself.
This is an awesome power.
And this power is already at work in your body.
Within your body is a powerful healing system that fights germs, heals diseases, and prevents you from getting sick.
Friend, God has placed a healer within you.
And that healer is an amazing healer!
Some of you may ask, “Bo, are you talking about the immune system?”
Yes, but not just the immune system as you know it.
Because we’re talking about a healing system that is both natural and supernatural, both physical and spiritual at the same time.
Let me give you three examples of this kind of self-healing that happens everyday of your life.
1. The Best Repairmen In The World
When I was a high school kid, I studied in an all-boys’ school. Beside us was an all-girls’ school. Between us was a fence. So what did we do? My classmates and I, whenever the teacher wasn’t looking, climbed that fence to ogle the girls next door.
Obviously, I wasn’t lusting. I was just admiring God’s beautiful creation in the female anatomy. J
But in one of those trips down that fence, I fell. Really bad. And I had this deep gash in my lower abdomen. Except that I didn’t know about it.
When I stood up and ran back to our classroom, my classmate was the one who said, “Bo, you’re bleeding!” I looked at my abdomen and saw my white polo uniform drenched with fresh red blood. I lifted up my shirt and exposed a long wound.
My classmate gasped. “Your intestines are coming out!”
He asked me to go to the clinic right away.
I didn’t go. Because of fear. How can I tell them that I got the wound because I was climbing the fence to ogle at girls?
So I went straight home, cleaned up my wound, and told no one about it.
But 30 years later, I can’t even see a scar.
Where Are Your Wounds?
As a child, how many times have you fallen, scraped your knee, bruised your elbow, bumped your head, scarred your skin, and burnt your fingers? How many paper cuts have you had? How many times did you shave yourself in the wrong way and nicked your face?
You must have had hundreds—if not thousands—of wounds.
Yet where are those wounds today?
They’re all healed.
Simply because your body has this incredible ability to repair itself. You don’t have to put anything into a wound. Just clean it and your body will itself.
Let me divulge my age here. When I was a kid, and I’d get a wound, my mother would say, “Get the Mercurochrome from the medicine cabinet.” If you’re my age, you’d remember this tiny red bottle with a small cotton bud inside.
Later on, they banned it and pulled it out from the market—because they used mercury—which they discovered to be poisonous to the body.
Today, we usually don’t put any ointments anymore on our wounds. Because wounds heal by themselves.
2. The Best Army In The World
Here’s my second example.
There are millions of different kinds of germs all around you now. There are also millions of germs within your body now—in your lungs, in your various organs, in your blood, on your skin…
But why are you not sick?
When I was a kid, there was no such thing as alcogel.
Today, many people carry this little bottle in their bags. You see people wiping their chairs before they sit down, wiping doorknobs before they hold it, wiping tables before they eat on them.
Do you think they’re healthier today—because they have alcogel? You be the judge.
Here’s my belief: The army of germs around us and in our bodies, our lungs, our blood, our skin, are no match compared to the army of antibodies in our body. We have the best army in the world inside our bodies!
Your powerful army looks for germs, bacteria, virus, and all other foreign intruders, and with precise accuracy, zaps them, shoots them, wrestles them to the floor, pins them down, and destroys them.
And I hope I won’t scare you when I say this, but right this moment, you have cancer cells in your body.
But why is it that you don’t have cancer?
Why are you strong and alive and vibrant?
Because God’s healing system is at work in your body.
Unlike chemotherapy that destroys both cancerous and healthy cells, your healing system is so advanced, so hi-tech, so phenomenal, it targets only cancerous cells and kills them. With pinpoint precision, it only destroys what needs to be destroyed.
Our problem? Many times, this healing mechanism in you—this Healer that God has placed in your body—is weakened.
And what weakens the Healer in you?
In one word, Toxins—Spiritual and Physical toxins. (I’ll talk more about this in my next articles.)
Let me give you a third example of how you heal yourself.
3. The Best Pharmacy In The World
We like popping a pill for our diseases.
If we want to sleep, we take a sleeping pill.
If we want to be tranquil, we take a tranquilizer.
If we want to fight germs, we take an antibiotic.
If we want to slim down, we take an appetite suppressant.
But all these pills will never solve your problem if you don’t address the emotional roots of your disease.
Worse, drugs cause many problems. Not only is the original problem not solved, these pills cause many side effects.
Friend, your body is the greatest pharmacy in the world. It produces the best drugs you can ever find in the planet.
The drugs produced by your body are 100% natural, produces no side effects, and is given at the right dosage every single time.
Doctors know about the placebo effect for a long time now.
They’ve done thousands of experiments on placebos.
They give a patient a pill with absolutely nothing in it and tell him it will remove his pain. The patient takes the pill and his pain disappears. Why? Because his body was producing natural pain-killers so effective, so efficient, it gives it at the right amount, right dosage, right time.
They’ve conducted experiments with patients who had cancer. They’re given a pill that had absolutely nothing in it and they’re told it was anti-cancer drugs. The patient swallows it. Immediately, the patient starts manufacturing powerful anti-cancer chemicals within his body.
Your body is more powerful than you think it is.
When you pray with profound peace, when you laugh till your belly hurts, when you take deep breaths, when you enjoy the sunset, when you get a hug, when you’re engrossed in a project that blesses the world, your body manufactures all-natural chemicals that heal your body.
Let me tell you a story that inspired me so much.
Cancer Is No Match To
God’s Healing Power In Your Body
One day, Lina wasn’t feeling well.
When she went to the doctor, they diagnosed her to have an acute rheumatic heart disease. Her heart valves were damaged so much, she needed an immediate heart surgery.
After what appeared to be a successful operation, she woke up with a terrible headache.
Thinking it was just an effect of the anesthesia, the doctors gave her oral pain killers. But the pain didn’t stop. The doctors gave her injectable pain relievers but they didn’t work too.
The headache persisted. This worried her doctors and ordered her to have a cranial MRI to find out what was causing the pain.
To the horror of her family, the doctors found a tumor in her brain.
Imagine this: After her open-heart surgery, Lina went home to prepare for a brain surgery!
Through all this time, Liza told me how she much she prayed for her sister Lina. Her sister, Liza, texted all 500 names in her cell phone. She asked her friends in Opus Dei to ask for the intercession of Jose Maria Escriva.
Soon, Lina went back to the hospital to check if her heart was strong enough for a brain surgery. As she was being prepared for the operation, she noticed that she no longer had headaches.
On the day of the operation, doctors performed a few more tests and MRI’s. The operation was scheduled to start at 7am. But at 9am, the operation had not yet begun. “There are some complications,” the doctors explained to the family.
After lunch, the doctors called the family to tell them that all the tests showed that the tumor had disappeared! They couldn’t explain it. There was no need for an operation.
You Create A New Body Every Single Second
How did her tumors disappear?
I’ve been serving God for so long now, I’ve seen these miracles happen again and again.
Tumors disappearing.
Cancers going on remission
Kidneys being repaired.
Bones getting healed.
Why do these miracles happen?
Science is slowly catching up to explain such miracles.
Is Your Body A Machine?
Or A Flowing Stream?
Physicists have long learned that we create new bodies every single second of our lives.
Through calculations done with radioisotopes, physicists say that we replace 95% of the atoms in our body.
You create a new liver every 6 weeks.
You create a new skeleton every 3 months.
You create a new stomach lining every 3 weeks.
You create a new skin every month.
You create a new brain every year.
Here’s the truth: Your body is now different from the body you had last year.
Our bodies are not machines.
Quantum Physics now tells us that our bodies are more like flowing streams of energy. Physics tells us that at the subatomic level, we’re all moving, vibrating energy.
What does this mean?
You can create a brand new cell, a brand new tissue, a brand new organ, and a brand new body! This is the reason why healing can happen everyday.
“But Why Is My Body Not Changing?”
I can hear your question now.
“But Bo, if I change the atoms of my body so often, why is my body still sick? You’re telling me that I get a new liver every six weeks. But I’ve had this liver problem for two years now. Why do I replace my sick liver with another sick liver?”
One reason: Your body is an expression of your soul. Your body is a blueprint of what is inside you—your thoughts, your emotions, your imagination, your beliefs, your attitude, your dreams, your hurts, your doubts, your prayers…
So your body won’t change if your soul won’t change.
Your body will change the moment your soul changes.
Let me clarify this for you.
Here’s a fact: Everyday, we have 60,000 thoughts.
That’s great.
The sad part is that 95% of those thoughts were the same thoughts we had yesterday!
If you want your body to be healed, you have to first change your thoughts, your feelings, your imagination, your expectations…
Especially your expectations.
The Power Of Expectation
Our bodies merely manifest our beliefs.
And there’s our problem: We expect to grow old and decay.
For us, growing old means getting ready to die.
Why? Because that’s what we see around us: People in their sixties and seventies who are so sickly, they’re like walking drugstores. We see them hobbling on their canes, bent over and crooked, complaining of aches and pains everyday.
It’s the expectation of society. It’s called the hypnosis of social conditioning.
But not everyone has this expectation.
In fact, scientists have gone to the 10 places in the world with the most centenarians. They asked the question, “What’s the secret of their long life?”
They discovered many things. The great food they eat. The pure air they breathe. The long-term relationships they enjoy.
But aside from these obvious things, there’s one thing that’s very different in their world: The society’s expectations of old people. In those places, they love old people. They celebrate old people. To grow old is glorious.
In their societies, it’s normal to see a 100-year-old man swimming in a cold river. It’s normal to see a 103-year-old woman climbing up a mountain with a heavy basket on her back. It’s normal to see a 105-year-old man on horseback.
Their expectations are very different.
What is your expectation of yourself?
Expect healing and health!
Expect to grow old strong and blessed.
Starting today, expect to reach a hundred years old, serving God with the strength of a fifty-year-old body!
The Power Of Faith
There’s power in your expectation.
Do you expect healing?
Do you expect miracles?
I’ve been doing ministry for 31 years.
I’ve preached in both cities and barrios.
And here’s what I’ve noticed: When I hold healing prayer sessions, I see more miracles in the barrios than in the cities. I see more people healed in little towns than in big towns. Why? Because people there have simple faith. They have less doubts. They carry less intellectual baggage (aka: pride).
In other words, they expect miracles.
And their bodies comply to their expectation.
I encourage you to expect healing.
One Last Story: Liza
I already shared with you the healing story of Lina.
Her sister Liza, a close friend of mine, also has a powerful sharing.
One day, Liza found a small lump in her left breast.
She went to Asian hospital and had it tested.
A few days after, she got a text message that biopsy came out malignant. On hearing the news, Liza and her husband Benny hugged and cried together.
The next days were very confusing. They were told to make a decision and to make it fast. The doctors recommended chemotherapy.
But through prayer, Liza and Benny decided not to go through chemo. Instead, Liza went through natural medicine.
She completely changed her lifestyle, her eating habits, eating no meat, no processed food, no dairy products, and drinking 150 herbs a day.
Through all that, Liza kept her faith and positive attitude. Liza is one of the most vivacious woman I’ve ever met—and even amidst her cancer—she kept smiling, laughing, and giving joy to people around her.
Today?
For the past 6 years, my friend Liza has been free from cancer.
Yes, miracles happen. Everyday.
I pray for you: Open your life to healing.
Open your life to miracles.
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez

Thank You Bro Bo for reminding us that miracles happen everyday!
What an eye opener! Been suffering from osteoarthritis (both knees) for 3 years now. Always in chronic excruciating pain. Stopped non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug due its side effects. Now I just resort to herbal medications. I just persevere and strengthen my faith in God that He will heal me. Thanks a lot Brother Bo. God bless
Thank you so much Sir Bo for your never ending inspirational stories….Truly God is the greatest healer…If only most people would know how faithful God is to His promise of showering us with all the favors…..Keep on sending…thank yuou so much and more power!!
thank you bo for reminding me the power within me…God bless you always…
thanks bro Bo for another inspirational story… again another God’s blessing to us through you….. thanks and God bless……….
Thank you so much for inspiring me with your faith. I don’t have any disease at the moment but I feel like my life is very toxic lately. I am in the middle of choosing between keeping a good-paying job or a choosing another one that may offer me less stress. I really hope that all the stress in my life will not yet catch up on me so that my body may continue the health that I am enjoying. God bless you and thank you so much.
Hi Sir Bro,
Thank you so much for the endless inspirational articles.
I’ve started healing my soul and will expect for a drastic change
in my life style soon enough (that’s for sure)…
In GOD’S perfect time…
Have a blessed week for each and everyone.
thank you so much for bridging the whispers of God to me. you truly are a blessing to me & to others….
I do believe in this article so much. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Bro Bo for reminding us of our power to heal. Last Wednesday(June 23,2010) I signed up for your Kerygma Community even if I’ve been attending other Christian communities as well. I believe that God uses instruments for us to feel his LOVE for His children and that He has fulfillied His MIRACLE OF HEALING to me last 2 Saturdays ago. With the GREAT FAITH I have with the LORD and through my prayer of expectancy,when I had my final TVS ultrasound result last Thurs and got the result, I was sooooo happy and blessed as my RIGHT OVARIAN CYST IS GONE!!!! It is normal by now! I really believe that God is really a GREAT GOD of EVERY BLESSING we ask! PRAISE THE LORD for my Healing!!!!
I praise and thank God for sharing you Bro Bo to us…. and yes I believe and claim the healer within me knowing that I am a temple of the Lord!
Bo, Yes I believed there is healing power inside our body, because if I think negative , I feel tired and lonely, but when I think positive and happy moments I am active and alive. I believed that healing in our body depends on what we think , we dream and desire. So dream simply. God Bless us Always.
thanks bro. bo…
this is very very helpful…
more power and GODBLESS….
Bro Bo,
Thank you for sharing this powerful and inspiring articles to us.
God bless you

Thank you for the healing words that you’ve been sharing to us. Everyday is a miracle. I believe so because WE are GOD’s miracle. I am healed. I am blessed. I am loved.
It’s good to know that our body is powerful
It’s all in the attitude, so let us start doing good thing and it start by thinking good 
Let us all be happy 
Bro Bo,
Amen to this article. I myself have experience a lot of the healing powers given by God. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, hypertension, abnormal heart/pulse rate, sudden weakness and dizziness and other complaints the doctors dismissed as symptom of menopause and thank God everything is normal after a very short time. I understood how God wants from me and that is to love my body as the in dwelling of the Holy Spirit and to feed it with the right food and drink. I took natural vitamins and drink malunggay juice DAILY -make it yourself-simply boil water and drop the malunggay leaves and done daily gives you powerful multi vitamins. But the most important of all is by asking God the greatest healer to touch and heal me - i do that by going to mass and actively participate in the eucharist and converse with God immediately before communion that I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I will be healed. Indeed healing took place. Healing not only of the body but of emotional, financial - as I would keep telling God that I am not worthy to receive you along with your abundant financial blessings but only say the word and i shall be healed of my financial brokeness and receive your financial blessings. Miracles do happen every moment of our lives.
God bless you Bro Bo - you are one of the Gods greatest miracles too.
hi Bro. Bo!
perfect timing because im sick now, Thank you for inspiring us & reminding us that we just have to believe & have strong faith in God that any kinds of diseases can be cure without taking medicine…we just have to trust our Almighty Father because He is our Great Healer.
More power & God Bless!
Thank you so much Bro Bo again….this will really help a lot of people and will awaken them to use the healing power they have even just for themselves…
Personally, I thank you for having this article and that I can share it to my fiance. He easily get sick. Hence, I always tell him that he should not think that he’s getting sick coz it will really happen.
Until then Bro Bo.
God bless you and your family more!

Our healing powers are part of God’s tremendous gift of love to us! God made us a little less than the angels, but nevertheless, thru his son Jesus the carpenter from Nazareth, God has adopted us as his children, his co-creators and glorious inheritors of his kingdom!
So be it!

I look forward to meeting you personally when I come back to the Philippines.
More Power and God Bless! =D
Wow! Thank you bro Bo for all your affirmations.
I have a tita who had a cancer. She went through a series of chemotherapy but it only makes her feel good for awhile. When she come to realize how blessed she is despite of what she went through, she decided to start preaching the word of God to her family and close friends. After quite sometime of doing it, her doctor was surprised that ever since she started to preached, her condition gets better and better. Today, she lives free from cancer and continue to preach the word of God.
what ive learned from her is that, when you preached the word of God with all your heart and soul, it brings out the healer in you. Jesus’ disciples started to do miraculous healing after they started to boldly preach the word of God.
Bro Bo,
Thank you for this inspirational articles..it reminds me of Romans 12:2…renewing of our minds. continue to touch peoples lives & encourage peoples to entrust thier lives to the king of Kings…He is our great healer…
God bless you & your ministry….
You already are God’s blessing to us. More power to you…
Bro. Bo,
thank you for another inspiring article….
and thank GOD for giving you us our guide in life…
live in good faith & love each other always….
GOD bless us all…
hey bo!:)
I was a bit scared when i saw the title of this blog… I had hints in the past that i might have the gift of healing (although like what you said everyone has which i do agree 100%)… I once prayed over my aunt who was diagnosed with a tumor in her ovary. The doctor said she needed to be operated. She was crying and it broke my heart… i was on the other side of her room where i decided to pray her over. when she went to the doctor… they couldn”t find the tumor anymore. I have people around me suffering from pains and things like that but i would always turn my back from them… but i do pray for them… and bo i do not want to take credit for it but yeah, most of the people i prayed for got healed! I would tell God in my prayer that i am using whatever gift of healing he gave me to help these people. I do feel guilty at times but what if i don’t want this gift of healing? what will happen if i try to heal someone and it did happen? what would that mean? or what if i fail to heal them… what would that mean?
bo you’re a miracle too. I’m 6years old and please pray for me to be a good boy.contact me: ncuna16@nick.com
Hello po,
I haven’t read your article for quite some time.
I have been wandering….but I’m glad to be back.
I guess that’s how it is….we wander and we always go back to where our heart really is.
The truth that you share in your articles are also the truth I found when i wandered. The presentation is the only thing that differs. I love the way you share it.
I thank God for you.
God bless you, your family and your growing ministry.
Thank you Bro. Bo for imparting this to us… You’ve been a chosen instrument of God to share His Words to us. I was enlighten then. God bless and More Power!
Hi Bo,
At times likes these, “only if we have faith of a child” becomes more true than ever. To have a blind-like faith, to believe in our hearts that yes, miracles do happen, not because we earn it, or deserve it, but always because of God’s mercy and grace.
Thank you for being part of that miracle.
hi bo..
this is my first time to write a comment.. and 2nd time to read your article…
thanks for boosting my faith.
yes this is really true!!

thank you bro. bo. i’m sure you’ll never get tired of inspiring people coz you’ll never think of getting tired. thank you for being you for the Glory and Praise to our God Almighty. amen. alleluia
This is really inspiring.
Truly God can work miracles in our lives ..

God bless… Bro Bo

That’s very good Bo i love what you saying by the way, pls. pray for my mom (femy), doris, Me. (menard) and Rose and brother-in-law Jerico ok?
Glory to God!
It’s absolutely an amazing article Bo, after reading this I got releived of my stomach discomfort and I will continue on beleiving and changin and cleaning excess baggages in my life. Thanks for this eye opener.
4 years ago, an accident took my beloved away and very often I wonder, how does my wife, who is now in the heavenly realm, feel right now? She must be feeling extremely sad for leaving a husband who is incapable to taking care of the house and the kid. ‘cos that is the exact feeling that I have, as I feel that I have fail to provide for the physical and emotional needs of my kid, and failed to be the dad and mum for my kid.
There was one particular day, when i had an emergency at work. Hence, I had to leave home whilst my child was still sleeping. So thinking that there was still rice leftovers, I hastily cooked an egg and left after informing my sleepy child.
With the double roles, I am often exhausted at work as well as when I am home. So after a long day, I came home, totally drained of all energy. So with just a brief hug and kiss for my child, I went straight into the room, skipping dinner. However, when I jumped into my bed with intention of just having a well-deserved sleep, all I heard and felt was broken porcelain and warm liquid! I flipped open my blanket, and there lies the source of the ‘problem’…… a broken bowl with instant noodles and a mess on the bed sheet and blanket!
Boy, was I mad! I was so furious that I took a clothes hanger, charged straight at my child who was happily playing with his toy, and give him a good spanking! He merely cried but not asking for mercy, except a short explanation:
“Dad, I was hungry and there wasn’t anymore leftover rice. But you were not back yet; hence I wanted to cook some instant noodles. But I remembered you reminding me not to touch or use the gas stove without any adults around, hence I turn on the shower and used the hot water from the bathroom to cook the noodles. One is for you and the other is for me. However, I was afraid that the noodles will turn cold, so I hid it under the blanket to keep it warm till u return. But I forgot to remind you ‘cos I was playing with my toys…I am sorry Dad…”
At that moment, tears were starting to run down my cheeks…but I din want my son to see his dad crying…so I dashed into the bathroom and cried with the showerhead on to mask my cries….
After that episode, I went towards my son to give him a tight hug and applied medication on him, while coaxing him to sleep. Then, it was time to clear up the mess on the bed. When everything was done and well past midnight, I passed my son’s room, and saw that he was still crying, not from the pain on his little buttock, but from looking at the photograph of his beloved mummy….
A year has passed since the episode, I have tried, in this period, to focus on giving him both the love of his dad and mum, and to attend to most of his needs. And soon, he is turning seven, and will be graduating from kindergarten. Fortunately, the incident did not leave a lasting impression on his childhood memories and he is still happily growing up.
However, not so long ago, I hit my boy again, with much regrets. This time, his kindergarten teacher called, informing me of my son’s absence from school. I took off early from work and went home, expecting him to explain. But he wasn’t to be found, so I went around our house, calling out his name and eventually found him outside a stationery shop, happily playing computer games. I was fuming, brought him home and whack the hell out of him. He did not retaliate, except to say, ‘I am sorry, Dad’. But after much probing, I realized that it was a ‘Talent Show’ organized by his school and the invite is for every student’s mummy. And that was the reason for his absence as he has no mummy…..
Few days after the caning, my son came home to tell me, the kindergarten has recently taught him how to read and write. Since then, he has kept to himself and stayed in his room to practise his writing, which I am sure, would make my wife proud, if she was still around. ‘cos he makes me proud too!
Time passes by very quickly, and soon another year has passed. It’s winter, and its Christmas time. Everywhere the Christmas spirit is in every passer-by…xmas carols and frantic shoppers….but alas, my son got into another trouble… When I was about to knock off from the day’s work, the post office called.. Due to the peak season, the post master was also on an edgy mood. He called to tell me that my son has attempted to post several letters with no addressee.. Although I did make a promise never to hit my son again, I couldn’t help but to hit him as I feel that this child of mine is really beyond control. Once again, as before, he apologized, ‘ I’m sorry, Dad’ and no additional reason to explain. I pushed him towards a corner, went to the post office to collect the letters with no addressee and came home, and angrily questioned my son on his prank, during this time of the year.
His answer, amidst his sobbing, was: The letters were for Mummy.
My eyes grew teary, but I tried to control my emotions and continued to ask him: “But why did u post so many letters, at one time?” My son’s reply was: “I have been writing to mummy for a long time, but each time I reach out for the post box, it was too high for me, hence I was not able to post the letters. But recently, when I went back to the post-box, I could reach it and I sent it all at once…”
After hearing this, I was lost. Lost at not knowing what to do, what to say….
I told my son, “Son, mummy is in the heavenly kingdom, so in future, if you have anything to tell her, just burn the letter and it will reach mummy. My son, on hearing this, was much pacified and calm, and soon after, he was sleeping soundly. On promising that I will burn the letters on his behalf, I brought the letters outside, but couldn’t help opening the letter before they turn to ash.
And one of the letters broke my heart….
Dear Mummy,
I miss you so much! Today, there was a ’Talent Show’ in school, and the school invited all mothers for the show. But you are not around, so I did not want to participate as well… I did not tell Dad about it as I was afraid that Dad would start to cry and miss you all over again. Dad went around looking for me, but in order to hide my sadness, I sat in front of the computer and started playing games at one of the shops. Dad was furious, and he couldn’t help it but scolded and hit me, but I did not tell him the real reason. Mummy, every day I see Dad missing you and whenever he think of you, he is so sad and often hide and cry in his room. I think we both miss you very very much. Too much for our own good I think. But Mummy, I am starting to forget your face. Can you please appear in my dreams so that I can see your face and remember you? I heard that if you fall asleep with the photograph of the person whom you miss, you will see the person in your dreams. But mummy, why haven’t you appeared?
After reading the letter, I can’t stop sobbing. ‘cos I can never replace the irreplaceable gap left behind by my wife….
For the females with children:
Don’t do so much overtime. If you cannot finish the work, it must be some kind of problems within the company, and it is not your sole problem. Feedback to your boss. Endless overtime may not necessary be the answer to the problem. Take care of your health so that you can treasure and take care of your little precious.
For the married men:
Drink less, smoke less, cos nothing can replace your good health, not even business nor clients.
Try thinking this way, are you able to work till your clients are totally dependent on you? or your boss is totally dependent on you? In this society, no one is indispensable.
Take care of your health, so that you can take care of your little precious and your loved ones.
For those singles out there:
Beauty lies in loving yourself first.
With confidence and loving yourself, you will see the beauty in other things around you. You will be able to work better and happier. Don’t let your health be affected by your work or your boss, so nothing matters more than your well being.
Hi Bro. Bo ,
I do believed of your article, that we are the healer of ourself. I had suffered chronic disease, I was hospitalized for more than a month , I undergone for many test, liver biopsy, blood test everyday, x-ray, m r i, ct scan and many more. My friends one day they gathered in the chapel of the hospital where i was confined. They recited the Divine Mercy, pray the Rosary and lifted me to God. During the pray over the Holy Spirit was so strong that everybody was begging God to healed me, I felt the loved of God through my family and friends. Since then i felt that i’m cured.
God really works in many ways, Just ask.
Thanks again Bro. Bo… God bless us all

GOD BLESS to you and to us… to grow in faith and love…
Thank you Bo. I always read ur article and it really uplift my spirit. It inspired me always. U know what everytime i read ur article my worries are all vanish and what replaces are hopes and trust to the our almighty that i can reached whatever dreams i have today.
Hi Bro Bo,
Thank you so much for an inspiring talk. Faith really moves mountain. Again it reminds me to take care of my health (physical and spiritual). I can share to others what i have learned from these.
God bless you and your family
Thanks a lot brother Bo..I really need this.
Share ko lang po..Just last month I wanted to end my life. The reason for that is I just found out that I have this liver disease.
Please pray for me brothers and sisters in Christ.
I know God is healing me spiritually. I know that He has good plans for me pero I’m still doubting. Pero I still believe that “faith is not a feeling, but its a decision.”
I will decide to believe in Him and awaken the healer inside of me.
Please pray for me guys.
Thanks a lot brother Bro. You’re giving me hope despite my situation right now.
God bless everyone.
thank you bo!
Dear bro,Bo
Brother Bo, reading this article was a humbling experience… i’m a doctor working in a public hospital…and most of the time due to lack of facilities, medications and technical support we lose patients…i tend to give up easily because I realize that there is nothing more that I can do for the patient in the physical realm… as a doctor I’m trained to practice evidence based medicine and to be updated on the latest guidelines on how to manange patients… being wrapped up in the physical aspect, I tend to forget that a person also has a spiritual realm… whose wounds I could address if I would make an effort to do so…
Dear bro,Bo
This article is absolutely great! it pinpoints every aspect of my life. yes it’s true, there’s a time for being hurt and a time to heal by itself.
God bless you
Hi Bro. Bo!
thanks for sharing this wonderful blog. I have a recurrent tonsilitis and my doctor told me I need a tonsillectomy. I’m hesitant to have the surgery but I was worried. I had tonsillitis last March, April and May, I’m afraid this could lead to rheumatic heart fever. So I thought of having the surgery this coming October but I changed my mind. I have a new co-teacher and she told me some patients who undergone the surgery their voices are not normal after the tonsillectomy I got scared. I’m a teacher and I need my voice to teach how can I teach I my voice will be damaged so I asked God to heal me. Right now I’m doin well I avoid sweets and cold. I see to it I have high resistance I take vitamins and supplements, I had influenza vaccine, I rest well, I eat veggies and most of all I always pray to God for healing and good health and I affirm my self that I am strong and healthy. Yes we have the power and it’s for us to use it to heal our body but it should start with the mind, heart and soul. God bless you!!!
You inspired me a lot! My heart cried and is weaken when i read this article. It remind me of my sins and what i did. Not considering God’s awesome power, the power of prayer. Ouch! I felt sorry.. And i need to confess…
I don’t how will i ever “grow in the Holy Spirit”.?
I have this thyroid deficiency–goiter.(hope i make the right approach!). One time, one of my tito told me that when you suffered from sickness it means, “Your prayer has weaken!”. How about that? Does it mean that my prayer is weaken because i suffer from this sickness?huhuhu.. God bless!!!
sooner i’m going to a surgery for my goiter and i am afraid that my voice will gone or become harsh… or maybe after the surgery dr wud be side effects.huhuhu. hope nothing wrong will happen!

Hi Bro. Bo,
Thank you for such wonderful and inspiring articles that you shared to us. I’m now on my late 40’s and suffering from diabetis and the worst part is that i dont have a job right now. Being a person with such kind of illness is not a joke because the kind of medicines that i have to take are very expensive plus the insuline that i’ve been injecting everyday. To tell you the truth, 7 kinds of medicines that i have to take, it’s only 3 that i’ve been taking coz i can’t afford to buy all of this. Some of my friends are helping me to provide some of my medicine especially my insuline. I know that Lord Jesus is always on my side to protect me and helping me. I always trust Him.
Hi Bro Bo, thanks for your inspiring article. I’m touched and can’t help but cry. Three years ago I had a biopsy that resulted of me being high risk of breast cancer. I decline the medication due to a serious side effect of having an ovarian cancer. Two weeks ago I had some series of tests, gone for a mammo 2x, ultrasound and MRI. Now the doctors are requesting for more tests, another ultrasound and a possible biopsy to get some tissue samples to make sure that what they see are not cancer cells that are progressing. I’ve been praying for healing and miracles. I think God is working on it and I believe that it will happen. MRI should give a clear picture but the doctors are unsure. May I request for your prayers that test result will be negative, so I may continue my apostolate of giving away rosaries that we make to churches as gift for first communicants and teaching how to make rosaries to prison cells that we just started and kids so they may learn how to pray the Holy Rosary. With the intercession of the Blessed Mother may God continually bless your good works as you share God’s word to those who are in need. Thank you so much!
proven and tested if we are open to the many blessings of God..really miracles happen EVERYDAY! thanks bro. bo..
Bro Bo,
What an inspiring message!
Thanks!
This is very inspiring and very informative reading. Thanks Bro. Bo.
Thanks bro. bo for that informative and very inspiring message…God is really Great!
Bro. Bo u r blessing millions of readers.. truly God sends down angels to guide, heal and inspire. I pray dat us Filipinos will change for the better, become healers, have abundance and become God’s army throughout the world.Amen
to dennis — 4 years is a long time to have not adjusted or accepted God’s will of taking your better half away, much more from your child. better get him to a counselling session, inform his teachers ’bout the situation , so they can refer him to a group counselling in school or in church, with kids in the same situation. that way, he does not feel alone and he will realize other kids are in the same boat with him. if she has an auntie or grandma, she could take care of him as a mother figure. both of you should go for counselling. churches in the u.s.a. offer group programs / recreations for widows and widowers .
life must go on…
good luck !
God is the Greatest Healer !

Bro. Bo,
Many Thanks for your very informative, inspiring, great powerful and nourishing soul stories.
God Bless & All the Best,
Cloyd
Thank you so much for your uplifting words.
very inspiring Bo.
True, healing comes from within us , a healing that comes from a peaceful clear conscience, a joyful conforming heart where GOD DWELLS. There are chosen men and women / visionaries , religious or the laity, who have this gift of healing. Jesus Who walked through the face of this earth thousands of years ago, is present with us, very much alive amongst us ! Yet not only do we aspire for healing of the body but most of all of the spirit. The body is transitory and passing / the spirit is lasting and makes the most of our existence ( the spiritual. ). Whatever God’s Will is, if we heal or not from physical illness, we should be conforming to His Will for He has a purpose / it is good for the soul / the spirit.
The Holy Eucharist gives us ultimate healing , body and spirit. When the spirit is healed, eventually the body heals. Physical suffering becomes lighter, becomes bearable, turns into joyful offering to the Lord. Others may say, ” it’s easier said than done ” — but wait, God won’t give us a load beyond what we can afford to carry, leave the rest of the load to Him , — ” When you don’t see any footsteps in the sand, it was then that I carried you… ” from the poem, ” Footsteps in the Sand. ”
Have a very good day everyone !
Be happy !
Maraming salamat Bro. Bo & family.
@ Bro. Bo. Inspiring!!!
@ Bro. Dennis. Naiyak naman ako sa story mo. I suggest that you heed Reader’s advice. Seek out counsel of the many people around you. God uses them for healing to.
This is so inspiring…the power of faith!
Keep it up.
I love these lines: Your body is an expression of your soul. Your body is a blueprint of what is inside you—your thoughts, your emotions, your imagination, your beliefs, your attitude, your dreams, your hurts, your doubts, your prayers…
thanks bo..i’ve learned a lot today..especially i’m suffering from pain right now..good to hear that i can heal myself..ill try it..thanks for the enlightenment..may god continue to bless us..

thanks, bro. bo… everytime i see the phrase “may your dreams come true”, it gives me an assurance that the miracle that my husband and i await will soon happen… we have been longing for a child, but on the 1st year of our marriage, i was found out to have a cyst in my right ovary & my left was polycystic, i was operated on to remove the cyst on my right ovary & to wedge my left to correct it… we look at it as an opportunity, an opportunity to correct what was wrong with my body, because it might be too late if we discovered it much later…
we know God has the perfect time for us… we are still waiting but we believe that miracles and dreams do come true, in His time…
God is good all the time… and all the time, God is good…
dear bro. bo

Hi Bro. Bo,
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it once more.
Your blog is like an anti-depressant pill.
Yes! No kidding.
And please continue to inspire people, because you’re one of God’s instrument of healing and hope.
Keep it up Bro. Bo.
God bless you and your family always!
i bet Bo is a big fan of Rhonda Byrne’s the Secret. tsk3.
Thank you for your inspiring stories Bro. Bo. I have been a wounded soul since childhood. My mother died when I was 9 years old and have experienced a lot of emotional pain and problems since then. I know that God has a plan for all of us, and that these things happen to make us stronger. God bless you and your family.
To Dennis and your son, I cried upon reading a story, being orphaned by my mother at a very young age myself, I easily empathized with your son. I also saw my father in you because I knew how devastated he was when my mother left him. But God is good, He will take care of you both. Please continue to love your son, and always think that your wife in heaven will be happy if she sees you both happy too. God bless you!
What an eye opener, its been a while since dad died and my outlook in life have changed slowly. having a positive outlook does improves one’s health
Its me again, I often hear mass but I do believe in God, But I have noticed in my situation now that the more I will be closer to God,the more temptation I am in to it…that’s why I need to read your emails every night coz I know there is something missing with my the way I handle faith……Hope to have some of ur emails everyday…coz I know your the only person who can help me…….
Thanks Bro. Bo
Stay Blessed!
Thank you Bo! This made my day!
i really believe in natural healing and power of faith
thanks Bo!
I believe in this before I used to have migraine most of the time but now that I am starting to know God and I entrust everything to Him. I have noticed that it’s been a while since I last remember having migraine..Its true you also need to make sure that your taking care of your soul through God’s words. This is just one part of my life but I believe that the healer in me is working now…I can feel God’s love…I am so happy and at peace…Thank you bro. Bo for this. ^.~
