What’s Been Going on Inside During COVID?
What’s God Doing About It?
A New Thing has Come My Way
God does answer prayers, even in here, and even in a pandemic. I have spent many years dealing with a health problem, going through the whole series of try this, try that phase, only to end up being told that my only options were to continue as I have been or have surgery.
I had brought this problem to God many times in prayer for Him to please help. This last time, I decided to be more specific. I said, “God, I really need you to provide a better option. Maybe You didn’t quite understand what I was asking for because I didn’t really name it.”
The next time I went to the doctor, they gave me more tests. The doctor came in with two interns (doctors in training) and we again discussed all the options that we’ve tried and what was left. It was the same old story.
Then, one of the interns asked if I’d heard of this other option. I was so surprised. This doctor in training had a new idea. We talked about it. The more I heard, the more I knew I wanted to try it. More importantly, I knew this new thing was God’s answer to my prayer!
I said yes, I’d like to try this new option. I didn’t want to go straight to surgery. I looked at the doctors and the two interns with a huge smile on my face and told them all that this was God’s answer to my prayer.
The procedure has a huge success rate, and they think I’m a good candidate to try this new thing. I’m so excited to try it. Even in this place, God hears us and does answer our prayers.
