Aggravation

On Monday the 12th, physicians will attempt a needle biopsy on a new hot spot.  This spot is behind the collarbone and will be difficult to reach.  However, we could see it with the ultrasound.  We'll see how it turns out.

I need a good tissue sample from the biopsy.
I want the tissue sample to be clean.

Good sample and clean sample will mean I'll move on to surgery.

Do I have any great spiritual truths to share with you because of all this?  Not really.  To be honest with you I'm a little aggravated at the entire process.  But I do want to meditate for a moment on a great big word.  The word is BUT.

I'm aggravated, BUT I will continue to take medical advice and follow through on treatments.
I'm aggravated, BUT I will continue to trust God.
I'm aggravated, BUT I will not allow my aggravation to move me into rebellion.
And most importantly, I'm aggravated BUT I am still wrapped up in Papa's love.

Papa puts up with my little fits and helps me get over the pouts.

This is as spiritual as I can get this morning.

Sorry.

    John, the above is a VERY SPIRITAUL statement! As I am sure you know Papa can handle your (my) anger and aggravation with both the situations in life and with Papa himself!! May Papa bless you as you have already been blessed! As I know I am writin here post proceedure!!
