Yesterday, I had my eyes seen by the eye specialist as I could not read for more long. My eyes get very tired and blurred occasionally. The opthalmologist has assured me that my eyes are normal in spite of the fact that the medications for my myeloma may have long term effects such as cataract although the eyes are dry. So, for all these good reports, I am deeply thankful although I wish I have more energy to do more. Yet, in spite of how I feel, it is really incredible how the Lord has enabled me to be in health.
As Christmas draws near, it is time to take stock and count each and every blessing from our good God again, lest we forget His benefits as Psalm 103 reminds us. As I took out my diary to count them, one great blessing is this - I had NOT been hospitalised for the whole of 2008 except for the month of March when I had a bout of bad chest infection. Praise the name of the Lord!
Josh and I had been reading the book of 1John together. We had also memorised 1John2:6 by putting the verse on the dashboard of our family car as a reminder to walk a life of obedience. Do pray that our family will love, fear and serve Jesus all the days of our lives.
