Sometimes It's All That You Have Left

"When you have lost hope, you have lost everything. And when you think all is lost, when all is dire and bleak, there is always hope."


That quote is from Pittacus Lore in the book I Am Number Four. While it is in no way a spiritual endeavor or read, it is a good book (a fantasy about aliens).


But I loved that quote. 


Hope was what got me through the last 5 days of waiting to hear from the doctor.


Praise God. The phone rang today.


My doctor's big jovial voice greeted me with a GOOD REPORT!


My problems are not serious and can be corrected by switching medications!


The best thing is- it came in perfect timing, as I have an appt. with my psychiatrist tomorrow afternoon!


GOD IS SO GOOD! While switching meds will be a trial, since these are working so well, it will eliminate other health hazards and risks.


THANK YOU ALL for the prayers. Please send up a "Thank You!" prayer to God, and also pray that tomorrow's appt. goes well and that switching medications is a breeze for me!


I've come so far. Things will NOT be going back down hill any time soon.


Hope and faith saw me through the last 5 days. When it seemed like all was lost and I had nothing to hang on to, God provided hope.


There is always hope. Always.


As I referred to yesterday, God is always in control. God always provides hope. 


GOD IS AWESOME!


Had I lost hope any time through this journey... well, let's just say, I wouldn't be sitting here typing this.


Thank you again for your prayers.
