healing

What kind of healing can I hope for in this life? Some say God promises to heal completely. Others say He may not heal completely, He may have a different plan to use my woundedness for His purposes.

What is healing anyway? To heal is "to make or become healthy, sound, or whole." Whole means "being in healthy or sound condition, free from defect or damage; perfect." So we could say that experiencing healing is becoming free from defect or damage. I really don't believe that that is going to happen here on the earth.

But Jesus did say that He came to heal. So what is He talking about?
