A Little Miracle Today

Today I know God is hearing my prayers.
I have had chronic pain since 1987, when I 1st busted my knee. Then around 2000, a student severly injured my back-it has never stopped hurting. My back&knee have been in constant pain since then, even when I took pain relievers like crazy. The back injury also caused severe headaches. There were other reasons besides this, but the pain caused me to always want to get away & escape my body. It was always just too much to handle, & it never stopped.
Then in May 2008 I busted my knee at work. In October 2008 a student broke my arm. Not fun stuff! I've spent a lot of time & money on pain management.
For months I've been praying (and been prayed for) for healing...and saying affirmations.
And today I can tell they are beginning to work!
The baby & I laid down for a nap today. When I woke up...I was pain free.
My entire body--no pain.
For an entire hour.
I felt as light as air. If almost felt as if there were something missing, because I felt so light.
There was NOTHING in me hurting--for the 1st time in 22 years. I could hardly believe it.
I was so thankful and grateful.
Once I got up playing with the baby & moving around again, the pain began to come back.
But for that one hour--I was free for the 1st time since I was 15 years old. It was incredible.
And if it happened for an hour, I KNOW it can happen again, and happen even longer. I am HOPEFUL-- one of these days I will be pain-free permanently!!
Every day I say outloud "God's healing power is working in me right now." "Every day I'm getting better and better in every way." I know its helping.

Now, if God will see fit to soon heal my broken heart inside, I will be even more thankful. I will keep praying, and praying. If He can heal my broken body, surely He can heal my broken heart.

Rabbit Rescue

We have had quite an exciting weekend around here.
A mama bunny had her babies in our backyard. Our dog-filled backyard, I might add. We 1st discovered this on Friday when our Newfoundland tried bringing one of the babies into the house. Yikes! My husband found the nest and tried to cover it back up, and put wire fencing around it to protect it from the dogs. Curious as they are though, they just wouldn't leave the nest alone.
Then a 5 foot long bull snake decided HE wanted to explore the nest. On Friday evening our labrador started barking like crazy-- we ran out there to find him between the snake and the nest. Our lab is now a Hero :) He protected the babies. On Saturday we nearly buried one of the babies, before figuring out it was still lightly breathing. The mama did not return. Thankfully, and by what I am SURE is a miracle, we hunted down a rabbit rescue operation just a couple of hours from our house after church today. It was a miracle. I had been praying a lot for the babies. They are now in good, protective hands of some women who will feed the bunnies, take care of them, and rehabilitate them back to the wild when they are big enough.

Nothing is too big or too small for God to take care of. He is able to command the ocean waves to beat against the shore, and to make the heart beat in these 3 inch long baby bunnies. They are so incredibly SMALL. Their little ears were only about 1/2 an inch long, and SO soft. We put them in a nice box with a t-shirt and warm washcloth and the hair from their nest (we covered them up after we took the picture) and toted them off to the rescue place.
Aren't they miraculous? So tiny, yet God loves them even more than I do.

The Miracle of Life

This is just completely incredible. Be sure to watch all 8 minutes. God's plan is so perfect and amazing.
