When I was a child I learned a simple meal time prayer that started with "God is Great, God is Good" and as I reflect on this I realize that this is one of the greatest statements a Christian can make.Though things are uncertain at this time, though I face a "risky" procedure, I can trust God in all things. He is Great and He is Good.
I had an angiogram last Wednesday (my dear sister Joy was with me) that confirmed that I indeed had a Dural AV Fistula. I have had symptons for many months but none of the doctors connected the dots until recently. The dizziness and headaches have increased so I am happy to know what I am dealing with. However, I know this is no surprise to God. I look to Him for my strength through His grace.
Skip and I will be leaving for Denver on Wednesday to be ready for the procedure on Thursday afternoon. Andrea and Nathan will be there too!! Please pray for the Doctors, staff, my family and me. Is. 65:24 "Before they call I will answer, while they are still speaking I will hear."
God is indeed Great and God is indeed Good.

Oh, Jeanne....So much I want to say. I will keep you/yours in my prayers every time I think of you. "Jesus, He can move the mountains. Our God is mighty to save, might to save! Forever, the Author of Salvation, He rose and conquered the grave. Jesus Conquered the grave." I am so sorry you must go through this. God is great and God is good.

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear how God uses this for his glory!!! I'm disappointed you aren't coming to U of M for the procedure. I was looking forward to some time with you. I guess I'll just have to come back out there!
Much love,
Kris

ReplyDeleteJeanne,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the update. I like the blog idea. How long do they think you will be in the hospital? Should surgery correct everything or will you need more treatment of some kind?
Alan and I will be praying for you and Skip. If there is anything we can do please let us know.
Love and prayers,
Pam
Thanks for starting this blog. It will make things much easier for you and for us! You know you have our prayers and our love. Again God will be teaching all of us about trusting him... sound like a familiar theme? I'm so glad Andrea and Nathan will be with you. Peter would be there if he could and I pray this won't be too hard on him to be away.
ReplyDeleteWe love you and will be anxiously awaiting news of how you are doing. God IS great and good and this will be in YOUR best interest and for HIS glory!
