"From the rising of the sun to its going down
The Lord’s name is to be praised."
~Ps 113:3~
This is a special day-November 12th, 2010. My oldest son had open heart surgery Dec 3,2008 & today was the last payment on his operation. It's paid in full! Only God could take a single mom of 5, set up travel across the country twice, rent & expenses to live there for 2 weeks, a $100,000 operation & have the doctors forgive the $18,000 balance down to $1800, & the pay it all off in less than 2 years. Only God.
There were so many friends & family God used to help us through that time. I could never say "Thank you" enough. Only God could move people into our life when we needed them most. Only God.
As we made senior pictures Monday, I was reminded how different his senior year would be without that operation. No basketball season, no baseball season, how poor his health would be, could he even have survived til now? Only God could time this surgery a year & half after my divorce (so were more settled) & 2 yrs before his senior yr. Only God.
Every time he takes the court this yr, every time he takes the field this yr, it's another testiment of God's miracle. I will celebrate that. Only God.
Every time he works with his little brother & sister at the gym, & then cheers them on from the stands, it's a testimony of God's healing hand. Only God.
Only God could send His beloved Son to die on a cross for my sins, for your sins, and tell us "Paid in full". Your salvation & mine, paid in full. Only God.
And wouldn't you know, today he is standing at FCA doing devotion on "Running the Race for God" (II Tim). Only God.
Never doubt this: His timing is perfect. Always perfect.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
~II Tim 4:7~
