THANK YOU, JESUS

WAKING UP THIS MORNING,

I UNCOMFORTABLY WAITED
FOR THE USUAL PAINS AND ACHES

TO SETTLE IN.

I WAS HAPPILY SURPRISED AT HOW WELL I HAD SLEPT,

CONSIDERING

THE DAY BEFORE

I HAD SPENT OVER 24 HOURS

 IN ONE OF THE ONLY OPEN LOCAL

EMERGENCY ROOMS.

I HONESTLY THOUGHT I WOULD BE HURTING MUCH MORE THAN THIS.

DON'T GET ME WRONG.

I KNOW THAT JESUS DOESN'T CHANGE.

I AM THE ONE THAT HAS STEPPED AWAY
SO MANY TIMES,
TOO MANY TO COUNT.

I KNOW FOR A FACT

THAT JESUS CAN HEAL ME.
FOR EXAMPLE:

FOR SIX MONTHS I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION

FROM THE DOCTOR'S REPORT

THAT I HAD LYMPHOMA.

BUT IT ENDED UP BEING SOMETHING

VERY SMALL,

NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AT ALL.

SO I WISH TO GIVE MY LORD JESUS

ALL OF THE GLORY

FOR MAKING ME FEEL BETTER

ON THIS,
HIS DAY.

AND, MY SWEET LORD,

I ASK THAT ALL OF MY NEW FRIENDS

BE BLESSED

AND, ABOVE ALL US,

KNOW THAT THEY ARE LOVED

AND MISSED.

PSALM 16:7

I WILL PRAISE THE LORD, WHO COUNSELS ME;

EVEN AT NIGHT, MY HEART INSTRUCTS ME.
