CLEARLY GOD WANTS ME AROUND FOR A BIT LONGER


I cant tell you how awesome it is to walk my journey through life with God by my side directing and guiding me.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
I was booked in for an operation next week, I had my thyroid removed 8 weeks ago and I have regular blood tested to monitor how my adrenal gland and hormones are functioning so that my thyroxin medication is doing what it should.
I had a blood test last week that showed my levels at 10 times higher than they should be, I was concerned that perhaps I should postpone this second operation, but my surgeon and Gp said it will be ok, however I still felt uneasy.
This is where the God is awesome part comes in.... I had a call yesterday from an anethasist to say that if the operated in my current state of health there was a great risk that I would have a stroke during the surgery...Nice, thanks for the heads up ...
The funny part is that this person was the anesthetic Registrar that just happened to stumble across my tests, only my GP had a copy of these results.
The second brake that God put on was a friend sent me a message yesterday to say that she could not get me out of her mind and prayers yesterday.
I was not feeling at peace at all about this op and now that it has been postponed I feel at peace . As Christians we are so blessed to be able to have an internal alarm that tells us weather something is right or not, because our God is as solid as a rock and trustworthy beyond measure.
....Isaiah 26:3-4 (NLT) You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Trust in the Lord always, for the Lord God is the eternal Rock.
When we abide in God he in turn abides in us, it opens a path of communication that as Christians enables us and our Christian friends around us to hear from God. it is the hearing part that is so important. If we don't position ourselves in the word and will of God then we may miss the signs along the way when he is desperately trying to say something to protect us . "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.” – John 15:9-11
If you are not hearing from God , then perhaps you may need to look at your position in life and make some adjustments , a shift in you will create a shift in your spirit.
1 corinthians 3 :16 Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
