Song: Total Praise by Richard Smallwood
As much as I write and talk to those close to me it still amazes me how much people don’t know about me. That says so much to me about me.
So I’m scheduled for surgery tomorrow and I’m scared. Apparently I’ve never said that aloud before and my sister is startled by it. I’ve been cut on so many times since 2008 that I simply cannot believe this is the first time I’ve expressed fear…but it is, at least aloud. I’ve had hospital trips where I felt death in the atmosphere and assumed it was coming for me. It always was someone else and all I could do was cry and pray for the devastation that could be heard from their loved ones. I would pray for comfort because time itself has no healing properties, but it does provide distance from the moment when it feels like your entire world has teetered over into a black hole.
So I will spend today encouraging myself. Total Praise by Richard Smallwood has taken on a new meaning for me today. As I comb through my Biblical knowledge, I remember that many of the battles they fought were led not by generals but by praise and dance. So…..
“Lord, I will lift mine eyes to the hills
Knowing my help is coming from You
Your peace, You give me in time of the storm
You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you”
