Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!
It's suppose to be a tad bit warmer today....that's 20 degrees.  Still cold but it's not  below zero anyway. 

I had my appointments yesterday, everything went well.  I will get the results of my mammogram when they compare their results to last years results.  They said it would be about two weeks.

I still have sores on my face and chest, I thought it was going away but this morning it's as bright as could be. The Drs thought it may be a reaction to the new medicine I've recently started.  They took me off the medication to see.  If it is the medication or even if it isn't, the DM isn't under control...my next step is having the infusions.  Four a year...

Yesterday, when I returned home from my appointments I started wrapping presents and stuffing the stockings.  I can't believe how fast time is flying, Christmas will be here before we know it.

No baby yet...Christine has a Dr appointment this afternoon at 1pm...
Kaylee and I are running to Faribault to visit grandma's...we haven't been over for a couple of weeks with everything going on, I haven't been feeling very well...it's time.  I've called to talk to the nurses but we would like to see for ourselves how both are doing.  I've been able to talk to grandma Faye on the phone, when I can reach her.  Today is a celebration for all birthdays in December, moms birthday is December 13th. 

So thankful for Family and Friends...

Today's Bible Study

God's Love Offered to the Hurting

Read | John 4:7-27

Jesus said, “He who has seen Me has seen the Father” (John 14:9). His life clearly revealed God’s loving character and compassion towards people. Let’s take a closer look at one of the examples mentioned yesterday: from the Savior’s interaction with the Samaritan woman, we can learn much about our heavenly Father’s tender love and care for us.

• Jesus initiated contact. Much to His disciples’ dismay, Jesus deliberately went out of His way to meet the woman from Samaria. In that day, Jews did not associate with Samaritans and in fact avoided traveling through their region. But God does not adhere to man’s rules or prejudices. He brings a message of hope and new life to all who listen and believe.

• Jesus knew her pain and heartache. She must have felt worthless, abandoned, and unloved after being divorced by five husbands. We all have emotional baggage that weighs us down and causes us pain. Our Father knows when we have deep hurt or secret shame.

• Jesus offered her forgiveness and love. He drew out the details of her situation in a nonjudgmental way so that she would be receptive to His offer of forgiveness and a relationship with God. He understood what she needed—to feel loved, valued, and accepted—and knew a relationship with Him was the answer.

God sees us today as clearly as He saw the Samaritan woman. He knows our hurts, and He wants to bring us healing and restoration. Won’t you accept His love? Submit to the Holy Spirit’s transforming work so that you can be brought to spiritual wholeness.

Looking forward to another great day!
