And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised. Hebrews 6:15
It is natural to expect instantaneous results from God. For the eye, I've been told it takes time for it to heal completely. Waiting is hard when one wants it now. Every now and then I remind myself what it was light December 23 when I saw the curtain gradually close on that eye. I forget that God found a world-renown retinae specialist who restored sight in that eye on Christmas eve. I forget the follow-up visit with this same doctor who declares the surgery a success. I forget the little miracle moments where I saw my sight in that eye become sharper.
I think one thing I've learned in my waiting is to pray more and trust him fully by remembering all of His past blessings and how much each of us is fearfully and wonderfully made with a unique set of DNA that set's us apart from others around us. When Jesus died on the cross for our sin's He died for each of you with his promise of taking up residence in your heart upon declaring him Savior and Lord of your life.
Because Jesus is in me I love listening to praise music on Christian radio or in Church. Christian music calms us and restores the equilibrium after a hard day of work. It restores my soul which, I believe, helps the healing process of whatever ails us. Praise songs restore hope in all of us where hope is hard to find.
Our God is an awesome God!
