Phil 2:13 God is working in you. He wants your plans and your acts to be in keeping with his good purpose.This was the verse John was reflecting on for the past day. It was the verse he immediately thought of after he had figuratively picked himself up off the floor when he was informed that he is to go to GF Strong Rehab tomorrow. John's plans were that it would probably be at least a month of waiting before he would get to go, obviously that was not God's plans.We are so excited that he is able to go so soon. The verse that came to my mind was Eph 3:20 God is able to do far more than we could ever ask for or imagine. He does everything by his power that is working in us. I could not have imagined that John would get into rehab so soon.
On another note John also had his nerve test today and it was successful. This means he will progress to the next stage in the possibility of having a diaphragm pacer. We will keep you posted as to what happens next with that when we find out ourselves.
Lois here John, God is so good. GF Strong is a marvelous place. I went to visit Gord when he was a patient there. Good luck and God Bless.
ReplyDeletePhew, that is really neat uncle John. My dad told me tonight and I was so excited. I can't wait to come visit.

Wow! Two pieces of amazingly exciting news in one night-I'm glad I checked before I went to bed. I am so happy for you John and Laverne that things are moving forward so quickly. I am thankful that a bed became available at GF Strong for you and that the test was successful. Lots of prayers continue to go your way! Keep us posted as to how the move goes....in one way I am sure you will miss some of the great staff you have met at VGH, but you will be able to meet a whole new set of staff and other patients who will open new doors for you. God bless! carol
ReplyDeleteGod IS great.......we're so happy at the way He has gone before you and set things in motion...I never doubted you would pass your nerve test either!! You go John!! xoxo

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.
ReplyDeleteWorship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.
Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his:
We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his court with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations
Psalm 100
Our God is an awesome God !!!
