The governments of the world should make health care a priority. The question I am about to say next may sound a little elementary but it is true that without healthy people in the world who would the government rule over? I mean really, why are so many people from other countries coming to the United States?

One of the main reasons is because of the health care. If all the governments in the world could provide its people with better health care then the world would be a much better place.

So many governments in different countries have self in mind and do not look out for the people. They continue to let people think in the poor countries that being sick is a way of life. When being sick should not be a way of life but health and wealth should be.

"Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers" 3 John 2. The scripture is in the Bible written by the Apostle John. The Apostle John was a true follower of Jesus Christ filled with love for others. Love is what should rule the hearts of governments around the world.

If all the leaders of the countries had love, they would be trying to change the state of the people that live in the place where they lead. They would do everything in their power to provide the best of everything including health care. The Apostle John said those words because he really wanted the people to prosper.

The foundation of the governments having healthcare for all a priority starts in their hearts. Until their hearts change then the world is going to continue like it is. A change that will help is to provide education about healthcare. Some countries do not have the educational tools needed to teach people how to have better healthcare.

Some people argue that it is a lack of money in the countries. People have been giving and giving money to the countries without healthcare for years but nothing has changed. I am not saying people should not give money. If people have the means to give money then they should give.

The change has to come from the heart of the leaders. Therefore my prayer is that the leaders of this world receive hearts filled with love, not for themselves but for people.
