I was invincible…until July 5, 2014…
"I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world."
~ John 16:33 ~
The doctor said I had a 10% chance of ever being able to stand again.
"Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord."
~ Psalm 27:14 ~
"This is my command—be strong and courageous!
Do not be afraid or discouraged.
For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
~ Joshua 1:9 ~
We quickly began to thank God for what he’d done.
After being able to move his toes for the first time since the accident.
"So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you."
~ Deuteronomy 31:6 ~
It was during these days that I felt God’s presence the most – that He helped me get through this…I can’t get mad at God…God’s all I had through this. He’s who I had to rely on the most. Getting mad at Him wouldn’t have done any good.
Most importantly, I learned how powerful and how great our God is that we serve, and the power of prayer, and how God answers – not always the timing we want but in His own time.
" 29 He gives power to the weak
and strength to the powerless.
30 Even youths will become weak and tired,
and young men will fall in exhaustion.
31 But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint."
~ Isaiah 40:29-31 ~
