Hello, precious friends! So much has been happening, I am wondering where to begin? First of all, my Grandmother passed out while eating breakfast on Sunday morning, and the paramedics were called, and she has been in the hospital ever since..... they have run all kinds of tests on her and found she was anemic and losing blood...... finally tracked down some ulcers caused by her arthritis medicine..... so the doctor has discontinued the arthritis med, and she has been getting some much needed blood transfusions......
She is doing much better now, thank the good Lord.......
On last Friday, my Mom had the contrast CT scan and some gall stones were found in her gall bladder....and today she underwent a colonoscopy....... some polyps were found among other things, but no cancer, Thank the Lord!
Now, for the "God" thing....... Oh my! I just LOVE sharing with y'all how awesome He is and how good and kind and loving He is! So, last night I was worn out and a bit worried and fretting and afraid..... just for my Mom and grandmother, etc...... so I talked to the Lord..... and went and looked outside of our sliding glass window in the dining room...... I gazed up at Heaven and said "Lord, I am worried and afraid about all of this........" and then a scripture came to me and I began to quote: "What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee." I said it over and over....... and then I prayed some more and went back to bed......
I awoke this morning (the day of Mom's proceedure) and was feeling that old worried and fearful feeling....... so I began praying, and went and sat on my bed, and said: "Lord, I am worried...... would You let me open the Bible up to a scripture that will help my not be afraid?" So, I picked up my Bible, and opened it, and, guess what?? I was looking straight at Psalms 56:3: "What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee".... my Loving Father was reminding me that I had said I would trust Him, during those dark night hours, and that I needed to keep doing so...... and He was letting me know He had heard my prayers and the scripture I had quoted to Him repeatedly......isn't that awesome?
Oh I felt sooo much better! It's no wonder that in the book of Isaiah, chapter 9, Jesus is described as: the Wonderful, the Counsellor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace........... for He spoke sweet peace to my Soul through His Word........and I give Him Praise from a thankful heart for doing so............
I hope all is going well for you all.....
Hugs,
Jenni

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your mother and grandmother. I pray that the Lord will heal and comfort them. Of course, I smiled when I read about your little testimony of how God was showing you to have faith and trust in Him. That was awesome! :)

Hi Jenni! I have missed you to :o) I hope your grandmother and mom are feeling better soon...I know having a sick family member can be so scary....Prayer helps a lot! and in times like these I often look up to him for advice and a loving hand. I haven't been blogging as much as I would like due to my computer and it's many issues...LOL! But my new one will be here soon and I'll start posting again. I also wanted a break, so the computer problems actually came at a great time! Thank you for visiting me today, I like the handmade quilts to... the ones I bought aren't as beautiful as the handmade ones. Yours are made with love put in every stitch :O) Have a nice day sweet friend! Hugs Jennifer
