This is where I come... to breathe... to find calm amidst the storm that I call living... to process the challenges thrown my way...

Follow along. Maybe you'll find a fresh breeze, or a calm spring day, or a challenge for yourself.

Thankful

Wow, time flies!  And as ironic and cheesy as this post is (it being Thanksgiving and all), I am thankful.

After a month and a half of testing for my heart and more testing to come, I am thankful for doctors and medicine and the technology that exists today.  This has been a very trying experience, but it could be much worse than it is.

I am also thankful for hope.  I have hope in two things right now.  The first is the possibility of a heart surgery that could make my heart healthy - no more heart medication (which I've been on for years now) and no more challenges with my heart either.  But this is just a possibility at this point, which brings cause for my second hope - I am hopeful for a new body in heaven.  And I am thankful that God promises to give me a new body.  I've been hopeful for this for a long time!

Of course I have numerous other things for which I am thankful, but these just top the list right now.  I hope you will be encouraged to be thankful for your health as well.
