On the mend

Wow! A whole new world. After ten weeks of not feeling all that hot, I went to the doctor. Let’s not get into it, but I probably should have went eight weeks ago. After ten hours of medication, I feel better than I have in ten weeks! I am certainly looking forward to being the rest of the way better.

This morning I in the doctor’s office, I just wanted to cringe. It was really hard to defend my actions to myself. The doctor was not out to condemn me. She was there to help me, and she definitely did! But walking away from that I kept telling myself: but if you look at how well I took care of myself ten years ago, I take better care of myself now. I have made progress.

I suppose I have, but I don’t know some days it is hard to defend my decisions. So since I have pneumonia, I came home and slept six hours and cancelled all my plans for the weekend. Now all I have to do is sleep 36 hours before church on Sunday. Rest. Rest. Rest, so I do not need anymore medical care! Life without insurance is hard!

That is pretty much my entire day. It is really hard to grow a lot spiritually when one is sleeping. lol.

The LORD, the Mighty One, is God, and he has spoken; he has summoned all humanity from where the sun rises to where it sets…..

[and God said,]

“O my people, listen as I speak. Here are my charges against you, O Israel: I am God, your God! I have no complaint about your sacrifices or the burnt offerings you constantly offer. But I do not need the bulls from your barns or the goats from your pens. For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird on the mountains, and all the animals of the field are mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for all the world is mine and everything in it. Do I eat the meat of bulls? Do I drink the blood of goats? Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the vows you made to the Most High. Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.” – Psalm 50:1 & 7-15
