This morning some dear friends, Bud and Joan Carroll took me to have my port installed for my chemo treatments that will start on Tuesday, I kept wondering why I couldn't do this by myself (because I didn't know they were going to knock me out for this procedure), so I was very glad to have a ride. They gave me "twilight" and it is wonderful, you wake up very alert and feeling great. I didn't feel a thing and even now about 8 hours later I have no pain, I do have one whopper of a bruise... but it doesn't hurt. I'm supposed to keep ice on it and keep my arm up, which obviously I'm not doing at the moment.
I promise I'll do it as soon as I send this. God continues to speak to me and give me His peace throughout this process. My devotional reading this morning from the book "Hugs" that my sister Kathy sent me was so perfect and just what I needed to hear before going for this kind of scary procedure... I hope it blesses you too.
God's Will for You
As human beings with limited understanding we can never fully comprehend the will of God. But as believers in a benevolent God, we must always trust the will of our heavenly Father. Before His crucifixion, Jesus went to the Mount of Olives and poured out His heart to God (see Luke 22:41-44). Jesus knew that He was about to suffer agony and death, but He also know that God's will must be done. In our own lives, we will face trials that bring fear and trembling to the very depths of our souls. But like Jesus we too, must seek God's will, not our own. Today, seek God's will for your life, and trust His promises. When you do, you will be blessed today, tomorrow, for every day of your life... and for eternity.
Life isn't life without some divine decisions that our mortal minds simply cannot comprehend. Beth Moore
