The more I depend on God for help, the more I realize how much He Helps! I call them blessings.
The other morning as I lay in bed waiting for the Spirit to move me, I was thinking about how several conditions I have cause numbness in my body and what a nuisance it was. Then, the Spirit (God’s Holy Spirit) whispered in my mind, “Maybe the MS numbness was a good thing. So, when these other things came along (chemo and arthritis) the numbness would be familiar and not so scary.)
It made so much sense. God knows what we face every day and if we seek His will, he will ’cause everything to work together for the good of those who love God,” Romans 8:28.
He prepared me and I am so glad He did. I think if I had been hit with numbness from chemo without having experience with numbness, it would have caused much additional distress. As it is, although I hate it and it is inconvenient and sometimes painful, with God’s help I can handle it and continue to face the day.
So, sometimes God works to prepare us for trials and tests, long before they come. Praise God!
For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him Matthew 6:8
