CALM THE QUALM

Don't panic; I'm with you. (5 words or less) (Isaiah 41:10a, MSG)
No such button available in my life. 
But God in His love and mercy has given us His word and His Son, who is the word. (Ephesians 2:4, John 1:1)
Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him; (Psalm 37:7, NKJV)

Fret not, Dots.....to calm the qualm!

FELLOWSHIP FRIDAY!

Fellowship is defined as friendly association especially with people who gather to share one's interest.
Art Lovers Gather.
Book Lovers Gather.
Sometimes the two coincide @ Germantown Library with chess lovers added to the mix.
Runners Gather.
Jesus Followers Gather. 
Christian fellowship denotes participative sharing and mutual encouragement towards Christ. They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. (Acts 2:42)

THANKFUL THURSDAY!

 calm YOUR ANXIETY!
 How does one do that!
 Give all your worries and cares to God....for He cares about you.  (1Peter 5:7, NLT) 

 How many ways can one say it??


Robert Morgan shares in calm YOUR ANXIETY, God's Word offers a "divine inoculation against the paralyzing disease of worry." (Day 29, P.58)

Eugene Peterson's biblical  paraphrase, The Message, says, "Don't fret or worry. Instead of worry, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns."

Ending today with a cuppa gra-TEA-tude and evening prayers of thanksgiving. 
After all.....it's "Thankful Thursday."

GOD IS NEAR!

Sometimes one can feel discouraged, even on Valentine's Day.....especially if your schedule includes lab work, more injections and a less than "perfect" medical prognosis. One can begin to wonder, "Is God Near?"
0f course He is. My faith tells me so. 
So do not fear, for I am with you; (Isaiah 41:10a)
He Has appointed our times and and the boundaries of our habitation, that we might seek Him..... and find Him, though He is not far from from each one of us. (Acts:17: 26-27) I remember once at the beach I commented, I wish God would just show me the way----like write it in the sky. He did. Within minutes a small plane pulling a banner came by with a Jesus Cares type quote on it. Does that happen often. That specifically.....no. But it can happen.
Today at the BCC, I came without a mask, no pre check-in completed on-line and I'm sure a look of dread on my face. Then,Torrie @the desk greeted me with a big smile, a Valentine's greeting, a comment about my cane with bling and a mask. The lab work didn't even sting. My next door neighbor's friend was PA on duty who consulted with me over my "labs."
Back to the waiting room I opened up Whirly Word game on my phone to while the time away as I waited for the next phase of treatment.
New game appeared.
Do you see it? THE scrambled 6 letter word in the circle?
Called back for my "turn," I ran into neighbor Angela's mom in the infusion room. 
Two least painful injections I've had of 22 so far!
God has a way of showing me "hope" in the midst of pain. Maybe pain for injections today was the same but it felt different to me. 
Usually when they inject I reflect the pain wanting to reject the needle quickly....whether on the inside of my elbow for blood, or subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.

When nurse came to inject, i was ready. God was near. 
Green light on the game gives one the "go" to complete the task.Can you see I typed the 6 letter word needed?

To you that might be pie in the sky thinking, or  just weird. 

To me, it's none of that. It's God assuring me, He is always near.
