To all the praying people out there.

My family has been sick the last few weeks, I have been taking zinc and airborne and extra vitamin c. I have been able to keep well, but my husband lost his job Wednesday and I have been under extra stress. I woke up this morning with a stuffy nose, cough and terrible headache. My surgery is scheduled for Wednesday and may have to be rescheduled if I cannot get better. Please pray for me and my family. We trust in God and His timing, it is just hard to think of going on and ha going to wait and do all my tests again. Also, my husband is doing well with the job loss, but prayers for direction on his next path would be appreciated.

Thanks to all who are willing to pray

Kat

Kat remember Gods timing is ALWAYS perfect!! We may want what we want when we want it but..He has a perfect plan...it's our nature to question why when we want something so bad...I would be so sad if my surgery was scheduled and I got sick & had to postpone... Mine won't be until springish..but I do know things happen for a reason..having said all of that I will pray for u that u aren't sick for wed. & that no matter the date of ur surgery u go thru it with ease ..and that ur family is well soon!! Also that the work situation improves!!

Thank you so much. And thank you for the verse. I looked it up right away. He is my refuge and my strength. You are right I know. The update is that he is making me come all the way down there tomorrow so he can listen to my chest. At least I can know that the Lord gave me a good and thorough surgeon. Thank you all for the support, I will let you know how it goes. I don't have an appt. I am on call because he will be in and out of surgery all day, so when they call, I have to be there in one hour, so basically I have to be ready to go at any minute tomorrow because it takes almost that long to get there in good traffic....so we will see. Thank you will again!

Mark 11:24 therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayers, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours... Sending hugs and will continue to pray for you and your family.
