For those of you following me I apologize for not posting in so long. As for me, since last post I had another stroke, had 2 angiograms, had a stent put into my right Vertebral Artery. Plus started speech and physical therapy. The outpouring of support for getting me better has been unbelievable. It truly makes me speechless to think of all the time given, meals made, and cards sent wishing me well! God has had His hand in all this and as unbelievable as it sounds I am thankful for it!!!
James 1:4-6 says, " Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind."
In saying that, I tell you that I still pray God will help us bring N home! And I have never for a second doubted that with His gracious help she will be here. It is very hard to be patient, and it is very hard to slow our busy lives down. God allowed for mine to come to a sudden halt, not to punish me, but to help me see more clearly what he needs me to do. I also see patience in a different way. I will not heal from my strokes overnight. It will take the same patience as waiting to bring N home. I have to work hard at both things to make them happen! So Let's Go! LOL
