Praise report and update.
Today is the first day in a long time that my head and face are not in severe continuous tics. They have slowed down immensely. The voice tics have also subsided. I still have tics here and there and my voice stutters every now and again but I will take it. THANK YOU JESUS.
My walking is still compromised and I will probably need a wheelchair for the time being to get to place to place but again, THANK YOU JESUS.
Y’all God has been so good during this entire process. I cannot believe it’s been close to three weeks since this journey began. Still waiting on getting into the Neurologist and UT Southwestern sooner but until then I will be at home resting and regaining my strength.
He says in 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 “Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take this away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness,” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weakness, in insults, in hardships, in persecution, in difficult times. For when I am weak, then I am strong …
TRUTH TRUTH TRUTH. I have been beyond weak and the ONLY way I was able to fight, push through and cling to any source of hope was because of His strength and because of the promise He made me in Isaiah 53:5,”But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” I AM HEALED
His WORD has been soothing medicine to my soul. I continuously had to position myself around all things Jesus. Between ongoing worship music playing, sermons playing when I couldn’t read, friends reading Scriptures over me, friends coming to lay hands on me and PRAY, friends FaceTiming me and going before God on my behalf in PRAYER, friends HOLDING me when my body was in utter and complete shambles, shaking and quivering as we all cried and they held me close to their hearts. We soaked in all the Jesus we could. Wow GOD is good 😇❤️🙏🙌
These past three weeks have been HARD but GREATER He who was in me than he who he is in the world(1John 4:4)
I/ we have fought HARD. There were days of weariness, sadness, momenst I felt defeated and frustrated but His light, His hope and His love would ALWAYS appear. We fought and continue to fight hard because the enemy was and is not going to gain one ounce of momentum on our time watch and he for sure was not going to ever feel as though he was winning. Jesus won the battle, the victory is His, it’s mine. He has carried me in the shelter of His wings and we are confident of this, that he who began a good work in you (me) will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”(Philippians 1:6)
I write all this to say that if it wasn’t for His army of angels, YOU ALL, and by His love and grace, I could not have made it through these last three weeks. Thank you everyone for your ongoing fervent prayers, for your messages, calls, food and gifts. Y’all have blessed us in ABUNDANCE and have been a source of comfort and rest during a difficult time . We love y’all and pray that God blesses you with His overflowing, lavishing love.
