As a family we have been through a ton. We've had many ups and downs through the years but the Lord has stood with us through it all. He stood by us and protected Tim when he was hospitalized for complications due to strep throat of all things. It caused him all kinds of stomach issues that backed him up and if we had taken him home when the ER doctor said it was just a virus he would have been dead in two days. I insisted he be admitted and they find out what was wrong with him because it had been going on for almost a month an half at the point of hospitalization. The doctor on the floor found the issue and treated him immediately. The Lord stood by us and protected Tim when he lost all the salt in his body from exercising a ton to lose weight for a competition not realizing that he had been going without salt. He went into a seizing comatose state which put him in PICU. We were blessed that they caught it quick enough and saved his life. The right doctors, at the right time, were in the right place for that to happen. Everyone else in PICU were there because of Covid but not our kid. We are so very thankful for the Lords hand in everything.
We also had to deal with aging parents and all their medical issues for the last almost 10 years now but God! His hand has been on us protecting us and standing with us every step of the way. When people say there is no God I say yes there is because if not for Him Tim would not be with us today. Satan sought to kill and destroy Tim but God said not today because that child is mine!
If not for God Tim wouldn't even be here because I'd have died along time ago and never met and married the amazing man of God that I'm married to today. He's a great husband and dad. I couldn't have asked or imagined anything better.
Ours lives are crazy busy with all that we have to juggle most of the time but we wouldn't have it any other way and we know that God stands with us in it all and that gives us comfort and confidence to keep moving forward no matter what comes our way. God has been so faithful to us and we are so thankful for that.
So, as a child of God, remember that He stands with us and strengthens us! His Word tells us that so we do well not to doubt but stand by it!
