A long absence from blogging. Sometimes life happens at a pace that doesn’t allow for much reflection.
Yesterday I had a follow up scan and consultation with the surgeon who operated on my DVT, and amazing good news! The stent that had been inserted during the surgery Nov 2010 and then was discovered to be clogged in the spring/summer 2011 today had blood flowing through it! Sometimes that happens the doctor said!
I say: Thank-you God. For your attentiveness. Praise you for the way our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made! I am so enthralled that my almost 50 year old body ahs created alternate pathways for blood and has also removed a blockage restoring life giving flow.
What hope this offers to the body of Christ--in places of stagnation there is good news. Even in places where reform that was intended had mixed or incomplete results, and questions emerged, “Was it worth it?”
Good news: Where blockages are present—they can break free—and new life can flow!
Restore and heal your body, the church, Lord Jesus! Where administrative attention and intervention has only mixed results bring healing, restoration, and new health for the functioning of your intent and purposes! It is your body after all.
