Travels in Life

I can not believe that is has been since February since I have written on my blog. My brother reminded me of my duty to continue to write of my life's journey. So here goes ...
When I look back on this year I will say one thing ... the Lord has been so faithful and continues to remain faithful through everything that has happened this year. It has been a long and trying year with many different things happening and even now I am trying to pull through trials that the Lord has placed in my life.
These past two months have been spent trying to deal with health issues in my life. Dealing with a chronic illness can be so difficult and trying but I will say again that the Lord is so faithful in pulling me through. I have not been able to work since November. My place of work has been very supportive in helping me through this. I can't believe I am saying this but I really miss working. I miss the interaction with my co-workers, I miss giving care to those who are sick ... its very different being on the other side of the spectrum and being the one receiving the care. The health care staff that has helped me out both in Orangeville and Toronto have been really great! I am thankful that they continue to help me in trying to figure out what is causing all my health problems. My family have been so supportive in helping me as well as praying with me and for me. My church family as well as my extended family has also been great in continuing to pray for me as we work on finding out what is causing all of these health problems. The power of prayer is amazing! When the Lord Jesus Christ is Lord of your life there is nothing more peaceful and rewarding then knowing that the prayers of the saints of the Lord will help to pull you through difficult times.
The other thing that I have found so encouraging during this time is that the Lord has shown me that when we place our trust in Him and continue to work in His work that the Lord will bless us. When we keep our eyes focused on Him our problems become small as we work in the Lord's Kingdom.
So I encourage you all...place your trust and your whole life in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be blessed more then you can ever imagine!
