Fear. We try to hold it back, or keep it in our rearview mirror as we travel on life's highway. The fear of not being able to control events that swirl around us is troubling. However, the fear of not being able to control events that impact a loved one is mind numbing.
That, my friends, is where I am at right now. The person that I love and care for the most is facing a troubling time, and I am powerless to do anything about it. My gal suffered two terrible strokes, dying twice, ten years ago. The seven stents she received only had a ten year window, and there isn't really anything that can be done. Unfortunately, there is no stent replacement surgery.
Over the past few weeks she has been suffering from nausea, headaches, and dizziness. My gal has had a couple of bad falls in the last couple weeks. It is troubling to see someone who on the outside is the picture of health suffering, and worrying, over issues on the inside that are beyond our ability to control.
I believe that God has a plan for all of us. That He is in control. Yet, it is difficult to just let go and trust Him as we spin and tumble with certain problems in life. I guess that is what true faith is.
I would ask for your prayers as we travel down this difficult path. My friends, if you are facing similar challenges in your life, believe me you are not alone.
