Pray and Praise

www.bible.com/en/videos/47075

Learn to trust God at all times. He is listening for our prayers and knows that the praise will follow. Sometimes it’s harder to trust God than others. My husband and I have had some health issues lately, not serious ones, just part of the aging process. Pressing closer to God during the multiple doctor’s visits and procedures that have to be done have helped me to stay calm and focused. In a period of time in our lives when we had planned to travel and celebrate together, we are going to dentists, eye doctors, regular physicians, and specialists instead. My prayer is to be a good witness to each helper we come across, so I lay aside my impatience and anxiety and smile with sincere thanks for the service they are offering me. Every day that we have together is a day to praise God for His grace and mercy; we are still celebrating, just not on a cross country train trip yet as we had planned. We actually planned it a year and a half ago,for our fiftieth anniversary, but I had multiple heath issues that arose that required that we stick around home for testing and such. This year, my husband had to undergo a dental procedure that will ultimately result in a dental implant when all the prep work is done. He also has to have cataract surgery that he has postponed until now when he really needs it to be able to drive. So, prayers for the procedures, the doctors to be wise and skillful and for a good recovery. But mostly praise that God has provided us for each other. When I was down, Harry was up and ready to help me. Now it’s my turn to be his helper. Praise God that we are not alone and that we are both believers, saved by grace and moving forward with the Lord into whatever adventure He has for us next.
