Dear Reader:

Tommy and Kaitlyn came to see me yesterday and we all went to Eva’s for brunch/lunch. It was delicious! I had given Tommy and Kailtyn a gift card to eat there as part of their engagement package.

We got caught up on all the news….Kaitlyn has been hired to be the receptionist at Brook Styles Law firm where Tommy works…( Kaitlyn said she will also be working for Tommy so this will definitely be the first test of their engagement period.) 🙂

Kaitlyn also brought me sunflowers that  enhanced the season of pumpkins (of all kinds) as a table setting… Big bright yellow flowers just add so much sunshine to the room!

Finally the day has come when I will receive some information on what lies ahead. I wouldn’t be human or honest if I said I wasn’t apprehensive and nervous….I am…but the God Wink, the rainbow the other night, felt like a covenant between me and God…He might not promise to make everything all right when I want it to be all right…but He does promise to be with me, hold my hand, and in the end, reassure me… it will turn out all right.

My appointment today is at 1:30….my adorable Brookie is coming to go with me. She didn’t want me going alone…I love you Brooke!

Yesterday afternoon, before Tommy and Kaitlyn left, they commented on the number of cards I had received and I replied, “Yes…I am very blessed.” So after they left I re-read them and realized that God was speaking to me through so many of them….Let me share a few with you, along with some email messages/ pictures (you sent) that were right on target too.

Lines of Encouragement

“Trust in your faith to get you through this…and trust in our Heavenly Father to be there for you.”

“There’s an angel watching over you…to keep you safe and always light your way-for you’re someone very special who means more than words can say.”

“Hoping you know how much you’re capable of. Not even this is a match for the amazing likes of you.”

“There are things only you can do, (and you are alive to do them) in the great Orchestra we call life (You have an instrument and a song.) …And you owe it to God to play them both sublimely.”

“There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is.”

“Whatever comes your way today-circumstances around you or feelings within you…Praying you’ll be certain of God’s still, small voice saying, “You are Mine…I love you…and I’ll never let you go.“

So until tomorrow…Armed with these heavenly messages and all my “spiritually scripted” jewelry and good luck charms…I will have all the protection I need to “Be still and know that You are God” while the surgeon talks to me. After all he is one of your blessed instruments through which all healing begins.
