Be still and know that I'am God.Psalm46:10
That was my verse this morning. I wanted to update on how I'am doing. I just got my new cadillac wheelchair and it has been such a blessing.I put in for it just a few weeks ago an got it already.Just in the nick of time.My legs are very wobbley now and I can only stand for a few minutes(short), my speech is sometimes audible but it is really bad. I have to eat soft food now and I did eat a hambuger from wendys an it was good.It took me a while to eat it. I have had some wonderful people come over to help and I'm so greatful. It is hard to ask people to do things for you.When they come I'am greatful for their kindness.I sit here everyday an my computer is my only outlet to the world and I hope that my blogs aren't too depressing.I do have days where it isn't the best day,but one day at a time is what a wonderful young man told me.He is in a wheelchair too. What an inspiration he is. Today I feel very encouraged by the Word, the Lord is the God that heals and I choose o believe He will. Just a momentreflecion on all that Im thankful for.Tomorow being turkey day.Its true yu have to look at what you have and not what your circumstances are. God has blessed us with a beautiful,warm home that overlooks the river.I couldn't ask for a better place.Gary keeps working and we are able to pay our bills. I would like my health to be better, but for now everything is good.My granchildren are fine and my kids are fine,maybe a little stressed.Life is good,because God is in our lives. We don't have anything more we would need. My heart rejoices in my God who provides all we need. If I died today,I could say I have had a blessed life.
Father, Thank you for all you have done for me.You have given me a wonderful life and beautiful children and now granchildren.Wonder husband that is faithful to me, full of love for me. A family loves me and for that alone I'm more then greatful.You have blessed me all my life and I thank you. My God I give my self to you
All My love to you Jennifer
I know it must be hard to swallow your pride and ask for help. Just remember that your friends who come and help you do it because we want to. Being able to to help you is just as much a blessing to us as it is to you.
ReplyDeleteWhen I worked at Willowbrook they had a whole diet called "mechanical soft". For this diet they even served things like burgers, but they would cut them very finely.
