Thanksgiving - Day 4

Another thing I thank God for is our health! Although we have to endure many medical issues year after year, I am thankful for the health God HAS given us. It seems as though right from the start of our marriage, we have suffered with medical problems. Right now we have been in the midst of a more than 2 year battle with a condition my husband is experiencing and the doctors don't know how to fix it....you have to love those ones huh! He has had over 8 surgeries now (we are beginning to lose count) and we really don't know when we will see the end of it. All we can do is trust God and know that He is in control of this situation and there is a reason and purpose for it. It is so very easy to take our health for granted until something goes wrong.
We are thinking of our grandmothers who are experiencing health issues right now and our father's who have each had to deal with medical issues in the past and ongoing. We remember all our loved ones in prayer for healing and recovery. We continue to pray that one day God will see fit to rid my husband of his condition. We thank God for the healthy niece we have recently added to the family and a healthy nephew a few months earlier. Oh how much we have to be thankful for!!
