New Prayer Request

I would greatly appreciate prayer for the drive to Omaha tomorrow for an appointment at UNMC. I have not driven this far in over a year...and am not doing so well at present. I would also appreciate prayer for wisdom for the physician. All is in God's hands. He is the great Physician and I must rely on Him and not on human resources, while still allowing Him to work through human resources.

Quick update (and additional prayer request): my health (or lack thereof) is continuing to present ongoing challenges. The most recent ones have resulted in quite a bit of testing-all of which has come back normal. This is good! Especially since there was potential for serious issues with some of this. However, we still do not know what really is going on-just that it does not appear to be anything serious even though I am not doing very well at present. I am learning ever more and more of trusting fully in the Lord for strength to make it through each moment. (Significant fatigue and weakness have been increasing over the past few weeks. I literally cannot do normal activities without much more effort than usual.)

There has been a lot of literal crying to the Lord for strength for the next step, next moment, just making it a few more minutes...trying to survive each day-one small piece at a time. I feel as if I am falling ever further behind in everything. For someone who prefers to plan things out, keep things under control, there is no plan and no semblance of control at present. I do not deal well with limitations. Introducing new ones one top of previously existing ones that I had still not fully accepted yet is not going very well. I am trying to take a step back and reevaluate priorities, tasks, responsibilities and what is essential versus what can be cut out until strength and energy levels come back. I am praying for wisdom in this.

Interesting observation: I have been reading in Job lately while reading through the Bible again this year. I can identify with him in so many ways, yet not so much in others. It has been good to pick out the treasures of wisdom and joy even in the midst of great suffering. God is faithful in all He does. There is a purpose in everything. I do not need to understand His purpose, simply accept that He has one and cheerfully submit.

Choosing to rejoice in God's goodness and faithfulness even in the midst of my own weakness!
