Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!

I had another rough day yesterday...still in a lot of pain and swollen.  I spent another day taking it easy.
I thought I'd soak in the walk in tub to see if it would help but it didn't.  :-(

A few days ago I started drinking some non-decaffeinated herbal tea, I'm wondering if that could be causing my problems.  :-( 

Paul and I are meeting my sister, Brenda and her husband, Curt in Rochester this morning.  :-) We are picking up a few groceries and Brenda and I are getting a manicure.  I haven't been out of the house for several days so it will be nice getting out.  :-)

I'm so thankful for all I can do...

Today's Bible Study

In His Presence
By Charles Stanley
Read | Acts 17:22-31

The apostle Paul told the Greeks on Mars Hill that in God, we live and move and exist. He was saying that we forever remain in the Lord’s presence, which is a blessed reassurance to those who know the Savior.

The reality of the Lord’s presence is this: God is complete, and He exists in His fullness wherever He is. Psalm 139 tells us that there is no place on the face of the earth in which God does not exist: “If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, even there Your hand will . . . lay hold of me” (vv. 9-10).

This means that God is not at one place in His mercy and at another in His wrath. He is not at one location with His forgiveness and at another in His rebuke. Rather, He is whole—and wholly holy—wherever He is. His fullness exists wherever His presence exists.

This should affect how we act, what we believe, and how we respond to our circumstances. If we believe God is always perfect, this conviction should impact our words, thoughts, and actions. It should certainly also strengthen our faith.

If God is perfect and He calls you His child, could there be so much as one single moment in which He is not looking out for your best interest? Is there ever, for one instant, the chance that something will slip past Him and into your life? Does the Enemy of your soul have even a nanosecond’s opportunity to destroy you?

The answer is emphatically no! Trust in God’s presence and know that He is with you every second.

Looking forward to another great day...
