Today I would like to praise the Lord for doctors!!!!! I cannot count the number of times doctors have helped me back to good health when I thought there was no hope of being normal again.
Yes, sometimes I had to wait for the answers and because I was frustrated dealing with my infirmities I groused a little with impatience. Now, I realize God was placing me in a situation in which I had to completely rely on Him as I waited for a resolution.
I confess I am not a patient person and never have been. I like things to happen quickly but they rarely do. I have always known I was born with impatience and battled against the feeling only after I became born again.
When an idea comes to mind I want to implement it immediately. Thank the Lord for all the times He made me wait for His timing and for His perfect answer for my situation.
We know what we want but we often do not know what God's will is for us. When we get to the place where we are no longer begging God for our will and begin asking for His will, then we know there has been Spiritual maturity, especially if we have had to endure illness for a length of time.
I have had lots of illness in my life and God brought me through all of it. If anyone thinks they have never been ill because they are especially good, they might want to pray against that attitude. God may bring illness to mature their attitude. Illness helps us see our need for God and His purposes in it. It is usually after I am feeling better that I can speak so "fondly" of illness. LOL
May we see the providence of God in the middle of our trials and praise Him through them.
I thank the Lord for my husband who lavished me with empathy and help during those times of suffering.
Hallelujah!!!!
