Sobering

Well today the pain got to be a little too much. So, I did take myself into Readi-care. I did call and tell my Mom, who wanted me to go a day or two ago. She is used to my stubbornness! But she does like when I come to my senses!

I have to say it has been a little sobering to now deal with the thought that I may need surgery. It does not sound like I will know for sure until there is possibly another test and I meet with a specialist.  It certainly is not the happiest of thoughts!

I was sitting here with a kiddo and was starting to feel a little sorry for myself. And I told the kiddo that there is nothing I can do about it, except pray. So that is what I have been doing. Even if the verdict is that I need hand surgery, then my prayers will be to have a skilled and caring surgeon to fix what is broken. Although, of course, I would prefer no surgery at all!

It brings so much peace to hand a burden that I cannot carry over to a God who can carry it. I can sit here all day long and try to figure out how I will get along. But there is a lot that is out of my control there. Fortunately, nothing is too big for God!

Tonight, I am thankful that no matter how this turns out, I am not alone. I do not have to worry about this. I do not have to stress about this. Because where my abilities stop, God’s abilities keep going for miles and miles. I am also thankful, that whatever I have wrong with my hand right now, is fixable! That is always a good thing 🙂
