Reminded of My Helper
Today I drove for the first time since my surgery. Ureka! I got tired this evening and didn't feel like making dinner. I knew I could beg off since I'm still on the mend and all, but I actually ordered out pizza last night. My boys needed a good meal. I just didn't want to fix it. I felt totally drained.
I happened to remember a conversation that I had with a young man recently who was a former smoker. We were discussing the nicotine patch, etc. He said, "You know, it just makes me think about how many things like that we use instead of praying for help."
So I prayed for help today. And you know what? The Lord helped me. I got my second wind, fried my fish, made a nice salad and steamed some squash and asked ds#2 to set the table. We gave thanks and ate. Then, I even went to Bible Study with ds#1.
I will lift up my eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. Psalm 120:1

Hi,
Glad to hear you're up and around. I'm guessing you're like me.....and are going to push yourself too soon and end up sorry. Please take it easy and find a way to enjoy and use this being-out-of-commission to an advantage you wouldn't have otherwise? I know, it's a challenge, cause it can get so frustrating and boring. Just think and pray! You CAN take it easy and mend.
ha. Do I sound like a....mama?
the voice of experience.

Yes, you do sound like a Mama! I am being careful still. I will take all of your good advice under prayerful consideration. You are a dear.

I'm so glad you're all right! I'm so sorry I hadn't checked in on you sooner. Please take care of yourself. My prayers are with you.
Peace and Laughter (but just softly, so it doesn't hurt.)

Glad to hear that you're past the surgery and recovering. I've been told I have to have a hysterectomy and I'm putting it off a bit longer.
Praying for your healing!
