And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct[a] your paths. 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. 8 It will be health to your flesh,[b] And strength[c] to your bones.
Proverbs 3 (New King James Version)
Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
As Friday gets closer, I can't help but ponder on the verses above. We are back to where we were two years ago, but this time, we are so much wiser. On Friday, my dear sweet husband will have surgery to replace his left hip. In 2008 he began the first of two life transforming surgeries when he had his right hip replaced. As a child, he was tormented with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, which led to adult arthritis issues that flared up severely in 2008. Fortunately, the Lord led us to an INCREDIBLE physician who did a fantastic job in 2008 with the first surgery. On Friday, we will finally close the gap when Rob has the left hip replaced, which will rid him of arthritis in his hips for good! He still has the disease in other joints, but by having prosthetic hips, he will feel like a million dollars. The first one was a total and complete success. It was the most amazing thing to watch him wake up pain free in the right hip!! And as of Friday, he will once again wake up and will be HEALED...PRAISE GOD!
For those of you who went on this journey with us before....we will never be able to thank you enough for all of the prayers and kind things that you did for us during that time. And now, we will once again covet every single solitary prayer that you offer on Rob's behalf. We are so blessed to have such incredible family and friends who intervene in prayer for us. I will keep everyone posted as we once again, head down the path to total recovery. We send much love and many thanks to all of you....you all know who you are!
Much love and many many thanks,
