Healer

Psalm 91:14-16
"Because he (she) loves Me", says the Lord, "I will rescue him (her);  I will protect him (her), for he (she) acknowledges My name.  He (she) will call upon Me, and I will answer him (her);  I will be with him (her) in trouble, I will deliver him (her) and honor him (her).  With long life will I satisfy him (her) and show him (her) My salvation.


On Christmas eve morning 2009, a year ago, I ended up in the hospital with a pancreatitis attack.  We drove to the hospital during a blizzard here in Texas.  What could have been the most beautiful white Christmas for us, became a nightmare.  In the midst of the pain and the horror that came with it, I felt His Peace with me the whole time and I was not scared.  We had peace in the middle of that storm.  I am thankful today for a wonderful and healthy Christmas eve, celebrating Him with my family.  I'm remembering His faithfulness to me.  He rescued me and protected me.  I called upon Him and He answered me.  He was with me in trouble and He delivered me and honored me.   I believe Him for a long life and thank Him for showing me His salvation. 
The few months after the attack,  I went through many tests to find out where this came from.  At the end, I received the "idiopathic report" from all the Doctors, saying "we don't know, you're healthy and we can't explain why this happened to you". 


I am thankful today for everyone that prayed for me and today my heart is full of joy, expecting as a child, believing in His promises and being able to declare His goodness even in the dark and scary places. 


Psalm 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me


Amen!!
