We know men's definitions, but how well do we know God's? God is alone is good according to Jesus: Mark 10:18 God is where ...the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days..." Isa 30:26 To the extent that we cannot look into that light without going blind, we come short...

Or the world, our habitat, which is often described in scripture is our body of flesh which contains that "...lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. [I John 2:16]. Remember what Jesus said about His world before He went to...

But something people sometimes bring up on this is because God is omnipotent He can override our will, but I don't believe that. Our will, our free will if you want to put it that way as expressed in Joshua 24:15 and other places is given to us by God's Word until our allotted time is finished...

I remember only too well the last clot, which it was a complete surprise in April of 2016. I almost lost her then, but God wasn't finished with her yet. Both the hematologist and the cardiologist have been monitoring her regularly since then. If this one were bad the pulmonologist would know it...

We could complain but ultimately how much good would it do?

She's not on blood thinners [I am], but we suspect that is the direction the specialist will go. She already has an appointment with a hematologist in November, but when he gets this new referral with the pulmonologist's input, they may want to make it sooner. We'll have to wait and see on that...

"The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good." Prov 15:3 : Omniscience, omnipresence "Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?" Job 31:4 : Omniscience, omnipresence "But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all...

Lo and behold seemingly someone was prodded into action finally as just minutes ago my wife completed a conversation on the phone with the doctor's nurse. No tumor and no mucus plug. But there is the possibility of another blood clot. Since this is out of his area she is being referred back to...

Since posting #41 and #43 on this thread my wife received a phone call. I am going to the prayer thread for my wife to provide an update.

You sound a bit like my wife. I was always shy and reserved, but she was very much a 'tell it like it is' person. We were not even pretending to be Christian in those days and her words were not what anyone could call 'lady-like' with a lot of profanity in the mix. She is still quite blunt, but...

Thank you! What is the norm for you on call backs is usually also the norm for us. Whatever the reason this is unusual. This man has been our pulmonologist since about 1989 when he diagnosed my wife's asthma. Not long after that he diagnosed my sleep apnea. We have told him that he cannot...

The Unseen are the things of God that people cannot see until and if they receive the eyes of which Jesus speaks: "For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their...

Where is our emphasis? This natural life of the flesh given to each us is at best short. While we may enjoy it at times for a season, is that the reason God put us here? Is physical health in this time for ourselves or others the most important thing to us? If it is then we need to look to God...

Give God the glory!

No, no news at all. Since we trust this doctor more than all of our others, we suspect either it is a staff problem or something had happened to the doctor. His practice is more important to him as are the people he treats. But... he is about my age and pushes himself to the limit and beyond. We...

@Riekertlily Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for this my friend. For myself while at 74 I have slowed down I keep plodding along. While I have a few little things happening with me, my wife more than makes up for what I do not suffer in the physical. So my primary battles are for her and in the spiritual. Every day there is a battle...

Even if we don't see the worst that happens to this nation, we will certainly see the worst that happens to us. We always need to be working and ready.

I really wish this did not sound right, but it really does. In a sense it makes me glad I am as old as I am, but even if I die prior to the worst of such things, there are many I care about that probably will not. It is good reason to pray and stay close to God who will help us go through even...

@Frank Lee I am praying that God will give your relief and healing from your afflictions. He is always able.
