01THE SHORT ANSWER

No—sickness is not a good gift that the Father gives to His children. Jesus said that if an earthly father does not give his child a stone instead of bread or a snake instead of a fish, how much more will the heavenly Father give good things. You are worth more to Him than many sparrows, and Jesus showed us the Father's heart by doing good, healing, and delivering.
