Question: Why doesn't God always heal the sick when they are given priesthood blessings?
Sometimes God allows us to be His hand in helping to alleviate suffering
Many people ask whether God intervenes in our lives. It is true that he does from time to time. But, perhaps a more important question is whether we are intervening in each others' lives. Should we pray that God will heal the sick? Yes. But, more importantly, do we visit the sick and administer to their relief? Should we pray that God will alleviate the suffering of the poor? Yes. But, more importantly, are we doing something to help alleviate the suffering? Perhaps God is more concerned with what we are doing to intervene than with intervening himself.
Elder Oaks taught the scriptural message that some aren't healed because it isn't the will of the Lord
