God Gives Me Good Things

This isn't really me, but maybe it could be! I'm very encouraged by today's MRI results. Outside of a small cyst inside the back of my wrist, and some minor arthritis, I am A.O.K.! No hand surgery, not even therapy. I can have surgery to remove the cyst if it becomes worse or never gets better, but many times it can shrink (may have gotten inflamed from the sprain, or even was a result of the sprain...no tellin' for sure), but because it's not too painful, we will wait and see. I have no restrictions. So...P.T.L. (praise the Lord) for good health. Did you ever dwell on something or something would get you down and then feel like God used something to give you a message? With the aches and pains that had been going on, I was starting to feel old (see previous post) and the turning 50 thing was NOT fun. Today, as I'm driving to the doctor's office for the MRI results, I had WMBI on and heard a commentary from some man I never even heard of before. It was the tail end of it, but it's all I needed to hear. He was talking about "getting older" and being bothered by it. "We were designed to get older. We have to have this body die to get our new bodies. It's all part of God's plan. So enjoy life and know this is part of the plan." These were all comments I needed to hear. And before I even knew the results of the MRI, I felt better already. No coincidence but a Godincidence. Being in prayer and then being still enough to listen to God and we just may be surprised how he gives us the desires of our hearts! One of my favorite passages: "Praise the Lord, O my soul, all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the Lord all my soul and forget not all his benefits - who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things, so your youth is renewed like the eagle's." Psalm 103:1-5
