You're probably thinking I'm going to write about my upcoming mission trip again.
Ok- you got me! Today one of the adults I asked to go let me know he is able to go! I'm really excited because he is great with youth and it will be great to have him as part of the team! We have 15 youth with very different personalities going and he has experience with lots of youth both at youth group and campus life. So, it seems a perfect fit for us.
I knew God would take care of everything. I feel so blessed to be doing this- and to have God with me every step of the way!
On another note...
Today my husband had a procedure done to hopefully relieve his back pain. We might not know for a week or so. But, I am hopeful that he might have some relief from pain that doesn't include pain meds. The Dr. seemed happy with how things went. So, now it's all in God's hands.
And on another note...
Yesterday my uncle had surgery. A few months ago, he had to give up directing the Messiah, something he had done for 46 years. He was told he would have to just deal with his health condition and learn to live with it. But, a second opinion and here he is. His surgery was long and they ended up doing a bypass while they were doing everything else. But, the surgeon was happy with how it went and now it's on to recovering so he can come home. Then, he'll be able to live a much more fulfilling life again.
So, where was God today? First, He is in the hearts of patients and their families everywhere. Without God, I never would have made it through any of my husband's health issues. Having God means I have faith and hope that things will all be ok. He gives comfort to those who are suffering.
And, God is also with the medical people- doctors, nurses, medical staff who tirelessly work and learn what they can do to help others.
Colossians 3:23-24

Colossians 3:23-24
New International Version (NIV)
23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
Blessings,Jennifer
