Happy New Year 2011!!! As you can see my face is back- it no longer looks like a moon face!!!! I am so glad that I look like my old self! I think that was the hardest thing about having cushing's disease! I did not want to go anywhere or even look myself in the mirror!!! Praise the Lord- He is good! Its amazing to see what God has done in my life in 2010! I'm so excited to see what the Lord has in store for me in 2011! I know he is molding me and making me more like Him through every trial! The fact that I have trials- shows me that God cares for me and my life. I feel His presence everyday guiding me! Its such a comfort to know we have such a loving and caring God!
I just recently found out that my Cushing's Disease case was one of four know cases in the world (because in 2006 it went away on its own- by no explanation) It was God who took it away in 2006. My doctor said that "just doesn't happen"- He teaches at the Cleveland Clinic and is presenting my case to doctors so that they might learn more about this disease! Its so good to give God the glory through this whole process!
As I think about this year- I think about this race of life God as set before me. He never said it would be easy, but we must have faith and endurance! He will give us the power! We must be diligent in praying and reading His word every day no matter what! We need to do what He tells us and obey what He says- this is my prayer daily. He wants us to achieve fully what He has made us to be, and I want that- I want to serve Him fully with my life!
Hebrews 12:1
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us."
