No test tube----tho it could be considered one.
No packing tube----tho I felt packed in.
Not just any tube.....
....a closed MRI tube for a 20 - 50 minute journey that lasted 80 minutes and the sojourner was claustrophobic.
Teachings from the tube are the lessons I learned while inside said tube.
- Solitude can be companionable----if God is in the tube with you. (Isaiah 43:1-7)
- He who is "the lifter up of my head" (Psalm 3:3) can keep it flat and immobile for 80 minutes.
- Fear is not from God....."fear not for I am with you." (Joshua 1:9)
- Valium helps.
- God is in control even in the midst of the JACKHAMMERING, WHIRRING, CLANKING and POP. POP. POPPING sounds.
- When the selected MoTown music cannot be clearly heard in the tube, it helps to call to memory hymns that allow an old church choir tp ring in you head and sing in your soul.
- When praying alphabetically thru the attributes of God, my "n" section is lacking.
- Prayers of others can "temper" any medical procedure and fill one's heart with hope and joy.
Regardless of the results, God is still good.
