In an Attitude of Praise

God has been so Amazingly Good to Me. I have no explanation for why He Favored me, but I am so glad that He Has.  For on January 14th I was struck down by something I could not explain, I had never heard of and there was no explanation for why I had contacted it. By January 16th I could not walk, dress myself or feed myself and still no answers. But God's Grace prevail and by 10 p.m. on that Friday night the neurologist decided that I had GBS. GBS WHAT? I had never heard of it and only 1 and 900,000 people get it. Lucky me no Blessed Me, for three months later I am walking and feeding myself and if God prevails I will return to work on Tuesday, the 21st. God is so Good! I am not exactly sure what my new normal will entail, but I thank God for what ever it is.

Over the last three months I have gotten really spoiled.. I am truly Thankful for the Family and Friends that Have shared  this Journey with me... GBS was defeated because of your prayers, your love, your faith and above all God's Amazing Grace. I am thankful for every prayer, phone call, text, post, flower, card, balloon, gift card, visit, tear, hand held, bath (yes bath), toothbrush held,  every road trip (my own personal drivers! ), every sitter, every coke zero, starbuck coffee, every meal cooked, purchased, delivered, every lunch date, t-shirt, sweat suit, pajamas, every smile.... and the list goes on and on.

For not because of me, but because of who all of you are... You have been so good to me and my family!!!! Thank you is just not enough...but I do thank you and love you!!! For God has blessed me with an amazing family, church family and circle of friends. For Please continue to pray for me as I strive to become more of who God wants me to be and less of what I think I should be. I have had plenty of hours to reflect on the woulda, coulda, shouldas - the mistakes I have made and the dreams that have been lost, but I can't turn back the clock but I praise God for what's to come!!!! I
am not without days that worry me or stress me out, or days that anxiety does not rear it's ugly head..But I Serve a God that holds me and loves me in-spite of my short comings. So as this Sunday Evening comes to a close this will be my last post for a while...But I do have a right to Praise and a Reason to Praise!!!

Praise ye the Lord. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord. Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord's name is to be praised. The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens. Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!  He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people. He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord.

For Praise the Lord today for tomorrow is not promised and I certainly do not want Him to catch me with my work undone!
