Our lesson today was: there are bumps in the road to healing. This week Hu had noticed some significant changes in the way he felt so we were advised to make an appointment with his doctor. After tests the doctor couldn't find the cause of the changes and told us it was "just a bump in the road".
This afternoon Hu was evaluated by a new therapist who will be working with him for a while. We were discussing the week's events related to his changes, and she began to tell us about the "bumps in the road" to healing! We thought that it was interesting that we heard the same theme from two medical people within the course of an hour. Hu has experienced slow healing but "bumps in the road" while healing are new to us.
As I was mulling this over later in the day, I began to think about my spiritual life. How often I have experienced "bumps in the road". It isn't cause to give up or fret about, but an opportunity to take it to Christ and see how He will guide me over "the bumps". He is faithful and my job is to trust Him to show me the way -- just like we learned from the medical people today.
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psa. 16:11
