My God is So BIG....

I love the children's song My God is so Big.
My God is so Big,
So Strong and so mighty,
There's nothing my God can not do.

While sitting around my house over the past days I find myself in a funk. My mind wonders into the "what ifs" of my health situation. I am (by self admission) a pessimist. So when it is time to think positive thoughts or negative thoughts about a situation, I am not usually on the positive side of it all.
Yesterday I was told that I would need to wait until next Tuesday to be able to have a CT scan to begin to find out what is going on with my health. WOW! Almost a week of waiting to take a test that won't give me answers, for another week. I was depressed already. Tuesday seemed so far away, that I would probably have my funeral planned by then.
But God knows all of our fears. He knew exactly what I needed. The doctors office called and rescheduled my CT for Thursday/today. Knowing that I would still need to wait 3-4 days to get results on this test, moving it up was a huge answer to prayer. This morning I went into the test full of fears and worries. I prayed as I laid on the table that God would allow things to go smoothly, I wouldn't get sick, and that answers would come. One by one God has answered my prayers.
One hour after I got home the doctors office called with results for my test. All looked ok but there were some concerns with inflamation of my intestines. (YUCK) I have to go back tomorrow for some follow up stuff and then they will probably end up sending me to a GI doctor next week for more testing. Hubby has been so wonderful being at home with the kids and taking care of me. There is nothing I could even think to ask him to do, because he has already done it. I am so blessed with such a wonderful man.

All of this to say... MY GOD IS SO BIG! He is our comforter when we are sad, scared, and pessimistic. He has held my hand today in ways that my best friend/Hubby could not. He has comforted my heart in ways that only the God of the universe could.

Dear God, Thank you.
