Since I got married a little over a month ago, I have been sicker than I’ve ever been. I’ve been hot, I’ve been cold, I’ve been shivering, I’ve been unable to swallow, I’ve been unable to walk … the list goes on and on. It’s incredible!
Before you think this is one long rant, I have to say that I am trying to follow today’s Streams in the Desert advice: “Try Thanksgiving.”
I am thankful for all these trials because they’re making me more like Jesus. And they’re making me more thankful for being healthy and “little things” like walking and eating solid food. :P But, most of all, these trials encourage me.
A little thought has been rumbling around the back of my mind: “I’m going through this because I’m going the right way.”
I’m not one of those everything-is-the-devil’s-fault kind of people. But I do think the enemy is attacking me, because Pedro and I want to glorify God together. And it pisses him off.
That makes me happy. Even if I have an ouchie.
So, to end off this blog, I’d love it if you’d pray for my health and me and my new hubby! And perhaps, “try thanksgiving” today, even for the trials your facing.
