Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another somewhat beautiful morning...:-) It's been extremely cold, for way too long.  I'm ready to go to AZ.  The temperature in AZ today is 70 degrees.  My kind of weather :-)
I got the flu bug that's been going around.  Wasn't a lot of fun but I'm on my way to recovery.  :-)
Last Tuesday, I had several medical tests, a mammogram, a pelvic ultrasound and Dr consult, and a bone density test.
The results of my bone density test came back.  I have osteoporosis which was brought on by the medication I am taking. :-(
My mammogram result was good.
I also have been given some estrogen cream.  The Dr found an unusual area on my left lining.  If it's not gone by my next appointment, January 29th, they will do a biopsy. My Dr wants to bring in another Dr for a consult.
Many addition questions...it's again wait and see.  Hopefully they can pinpoint the answers to these questions.  I've really had enough!  I just want to live in peace with no more surprises. :-) No More!
I am still very thankful for all I can do...I have been blessed in so many ways even in the midst of all that's going on...

Today's Bible Study
The Way to Acquire Wisdom
By Charles Stanley
Read | Proverbs 2:1-7
Knowledge is a prized commodity in the world, but more important than knowledge is wisdom (Prov. 8:11). God wants us to view life from His viewpoint and evaluate everything according to biblical principles.
How are believers to acquire this God-given insight? The obvious answer is that we must seek it. Too often, however, people who say they want to be wise do little to actually make that happen. Like any worthwhile treasure, wisdom must be actively pursued and carefully gleaned from its sources.
The first source is the Bible. Proverbs teaches that we should pay attention to God’s life-giving words and hold His commands in our hearts (4:20-22). These days information is broadcast with the slant of the people who packaged it. The only way to know the right perspective—namely, God’s—is to read His ancient “broadcast” and apply its principles (8:33).
Another source of wisdom is the counsel of godly men and women (12:15). The Lord at times brings fellow believers into our life to offer biblical advice, encouragement, or reproof. In Proverbs, those who ignore the words of a righteous person are labeled “fool.” Don’t be foolish. Surround yourself with other followers of Christ who are also seeking wisdom as their treasure.
Our heavenly Father ensures that those who seek wisdom will find it (8:12, 17). Diligent believers will discover they possess abundant treasure: In addition to godly insight, they’ll have knowledge, discernment, and prudence—rare riches in the modern world. Use them well.
Another great day!
