Gihon

If you had asked me what I thought my first few years after college would look like, I can guarantee I would never have thought it would like it has. My falling away, working at meaningless jobs, more falling away, unemployment, etc, etc etc.

But I have got to tell you--His grace really is sufficient.

I know His word says it is--but sometimes knowing what the Bible says isn't enough.

It has to be infused into your Spirit.

I know I'm in a holding pattern, and because I know this, I can have joy.

Not shame over unemployment.
Not constant frustration.
Not despair over my health.

God has already paid the price for my healing--for all healing. I believe this year will be a year of healing.

I really do.

And it may not look like I think it will look like.

But I can tell you this:

I haven't been needing my acid reflux meds every single day for the past few months.
I still need them some days--but not every day. And I still have some left--even after 4 months w/ no health care.

I'm praying and hoping than when they are all finally gone--so will my hiatal hernia, acid reflux and gastritis and the damage it has caused my body.

And my lung problems--I think I've had bronchitis again recently. Each time I've gotten it, it has wreaked havoc on my system--but this time--I'm in better shape than the last 2 times I've had it. And I haven't used up all my lungs meds.

I'm praying that one day I won't need lung medicine anymore. That this chronic bronchitis and bronchial inflammation will be gone one day.

soon

I'm in a holding pattern and I want to get to know my Savior. I need to know Him more--I don't believe the times ahead are going to get any easier.

But I have a Hope.

So I set my love upon you
No expectation
Only revelation
I set my love upon you

And my salvation is to see your face.
