I will give to the LORD the thanks due to his righteousness,
and I will sing praise to the name of the LORD, the Most High.
(Psalm 7:17 ESV)
I am so thankful for doctors this week. My husband has been sick for quite some time now, and he finally decided to visit his doctor. He is still not out of the woods, but now he is taken care in a hospital. Hopefully by tomorrow night I know more what really is going on with him.
This journey has been frustrating, painful, but also very rewarding. You see, this journey brought me even closer to God. In Him I find the strength to go on. He gives me the peace I need right now to encourage my husband that all will be well soon.
My husband’s sickness also made it clear that I love him very deeply; more than I knew. I can’t imagine to spend the rest of my life without him. I guess we all need to hit some kind of low point for things to become clearer; to really be more intentional with our relationships. Not only our marriages, but also friendships.
So this week, I am thankful for doctors, my marriage and especially God’s peace and strength. What are you thankful for this week? Please do share with us by leaving the link to your Thankful Thursday post below.
Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: be more intentional with your relationships.
Love and peace,
Iris

Praying for healing for your husband!
Iris, I am so keeping your husband and you in prayer. I am praying for a supernatural healing. I can’t imagine my life without my wonderful hubby either. How blessed we are!
Also, could you please let Laurie @ Women Taking a Stand know that whenever I have gone to her site the past few weeks (I use Google Chrome and have a MacBook Pro) it says:

I am praying for you and your husband this morning Iris.
Hugs to you from Texas!
