Jeremiah 33:3 – Call upon the Lord and He will answer you with great and mighty things you have not known.

Ps.34:4-8 –  I sought the Lord and He answered me……

I am on a medication for my cancer treatment that is so expensive that I doubt a  CEO of a successful company would want to shell out the dollars for it.  I have been on it since 2011 and it has been very helpful in keeping me in remission along with the many prayers flying my way.  But, every year I have to apply for a grant to help/pay for it.  And, every year I put myself under a lot of angst of going through the process of getting another grant.  I have been blessed since 2016 of being given the same grant, but this year I did not get that grant and had to proceed another avenue.  Pray, yes, – bargain with God, yes- put out a fleece (like Gideon did), yes – then, I finally prayed “your will be done”.  You know, ever since my husband of thirty-two years caused the biggest tsunamis in my life the year of 1997, I truly had to learn to really pray and trust God.  He answered me through different people put in my life, by miracles, etc.   but, It was not immediate – But, He walked with me with His hand of peace – And,  He answered in His way.  A lot of changes were made in my heart and soul.  A lot of things I thought were so important didn’t seem so paramount anymore – life was better.  At times, I think God put me back into the same settings I was in in 1997.  But, the difference is I am not the same person I was back then.  The things that upset me, I look at differently.  My reactions are completely different and I say to myself “Yes, God, you did do an overhaul in my heart of hearts and I thank you.”  Not to say all is perfect, I still have emotions that are upsetting, but I go immediately to Jesus and confess truthfully what’s going on.  Well, I didn’t mean to go on and on about this but sometimes as I write thoughts crop up and I let them happen as I communicate to my ‘just a thought’ readers. Anyway, I end with a blessing of gratitude “I got another Grant”.
