Encouragement Along the Way



Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.

Psalm 34:3

Apr. 3, 2008
Boy do I need this cup of tea

I also need someone to make it for me. I have been unable to walk for the last three days. I was thinking torn everything. But it is just the fact that arthritis has totally destroyed my joints. So I made it to the doctor today (he was out of the office yesterday) got the shot to get me going a little longer and an appt with the Orthopedist to plan my knee replacement surgery.

This has been a long time coming. When I was 43 my sports med surgeon at Johns Hopkins ( who I would love to be seeing right now) said I needed two new knees and he was hoping I could hold off until I was 50. Well it has been nine years, and am over 50 and I am hoping this doctor I have to go to (because he is the only Tricare Doctor in two hundred miles) knows what he is doing. I am so thankful that he is even here since most physicians drive around with "Support our troops " stickers on their BMW's but they all refused to treat them and their families. Yes I do have a pet peeve and that is it! I am Thankful The Lord is my Physian and I am in His care!

So here I am in the recliner, legs propped, lap top plugged in and tea poured (Thank you Honey)

Now I know you are dying to know what I did to be in such pain for three days and I would love to have some amazing tale to tell like I was sky diving and landed wrong. No such luck! Al I did was wake up and get out of bed. That's it. Nothing more. So I am certain the time truly has arrived. All Ihave to do is wait to hear what the doctor says next Wednesday.

If I don't get much posted, that would be why.  MMMMM this tea is just right. Tea is very medicinal. Well in our house it is very medicinal lately since our two year old granddaughter spits or asperates her medicine. However mixed with Chamomile tea, she is a princess drinking every drop! She has Tonsilitis right now and the warm tea feels really good flowing down her throat.

Speaking of Tea, The Te Cozy is Having another Tea Swap. Come join us. We love experimenting, fellowship and sharing our Tea times.

Lastly Hebrews 12:12-13 12.Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.
13."Make level paths for your feet," so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.

This is my hope and my prayer. Thank you for yours.

Just wanted to say thanks for stopping by and the words of Encouragement. The tilte of your blog and your book sure do fit you well. It really means a lot to me.
Sorry to hear you have been in such pain :( I hope and pray you get to feeling better soon. A dear friend of mine (she is 70 yrs old) just had knee replacement in Dec of last year. I know this is a painful operation and I will be praying for you in this. Be blessed,
