a matter of perspective

When I got to the metro station it was still light outside. After five stops and being underground the train emerged out of the tunnel into darkness. What a difference. I missed seeing the sun go down. I took a bus that goes near our Post Office so I got off to check the mail. Sadly to say there wasn't any. I was walking home and the sidewalks were covered with ice in places and I proceeded home with caution. Almost to our building my foot slipped and hit what I think was an exposed root. "Pop" went the tendon on my left foot, followed by some pain. Not good is what I was thinking. I hobbled home and when I took off my boots I felt the back of my ankle and was surprised to discover the knot that I have been suffering from for years was gone! I think all the prayers for my Achilles tendon was answered. It popped back in place. It is funny but my left leg feels longer now. I am going to walk in the belief that it has been healed and God will continue to restore my body and bring it all into alignment. I will keep you posted.

5 things I am thankful for....
  1. tuna fish in a can from America - not too fishy and no bones
  2. a little therapeutic ice
  3. a wonderful man who has a heart to serve that blesses me daily
  4. borrowed episodes of Numb3rs to relax in the evening with occasionally
  5. the knowledge that I don't have to do anything alone

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in Him, and I am helped. —Psalm 28:7
