Hi Folks. Yes, it’s been a while since I blogged. I’ve had cancer and a knee replacement, among other things going on. But I have some time today to think and process stuff I’ve been dealing with.

When I went off the painkillers after knee replacement surgery, I went into a form of withdrawal, which made me anxious, nervous, and shaky. Within a few days, I had more medication to help me get off that medication. Not exactly what I had hoped, but I feel better.

This morning I was anxious again, and when that happens, I get overwhelmed on trying to find my way out. I figured I need to spend hours with God and get my head on straight. Thankfully, the scripture came to me:

You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. – Isaiah 26:3

So I let that scripture roll around in my head for a few minutes, meditating and repeating it.

Then, the anxiety broke!

I know sometimes we wrestle with things for days, weeks and months. But thankfully, sometimes, the answer comes speedily! Thank you Lord!
