Greetings in the LORD JESUS CHRIST:
And what a wonderful and gracious LORD HE is. I finally had that pump removed from my side and the catheter from my back today.I have had a pump in me for around 10 years and am so happy to have that foreign thing out of my body. I left this morning around 9 a.m. I got home around 1:40 p.m.on this very cool Monday January 11, 2010. The LORD truly does watch out for HIS own. Thank you precious LORD JESUS for being with me during it all! I want to thank everyone of you who have prayed and sent emails of encouragement and Christian love. The LORD had it all worked out for me before I even got there today. First of all the nurse who prepped me for surgery was a Born Again praying Christian Sister in Christ who actually even prayed for me as she was inserting the I.V. and she also prayed for the doctors and me as I was having the procedure done. Then as the procedure was just about done, I started to come out of the sedation. As I woke up I happened to hear bits and pieces of a conversation. I don't know who was talking, all I know is I heard the LORD'S name in the conversation a couple of times. All of a sudden I felt the needle go in my side as the doctor was finishing up the sutures. That woke me up for sure. Otherwise, so far the only pain I had when I first woke up was in my neck and head. I have had so many precious brothers and sisters in Christ who have been praying for me, and I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the love you have expressed by doing so. Then when I told Amanda the Christian nurse about hearing a conversation with GOD'S name mentioned a couple of times, she told me that John the doctor who gave me the sedation to put me out was a preacher of the Gospel. Then John came in and I asked him if there were any conversations going on with the LORD'S name mentioned, and he said, "no not today". I told him, that yes there was, because I heard it as plain as day. Then Amanda said back to me, "there you go, just another confirmation that God was with you through the whole thing". Now only our God can set into place all of the loving people that have been a part of this day. Everyone, our GOD is so real, and loves us so much. HE wants to bless us all the time. And HE certainly this past year has been doing that in my life.HE has given me so much grace and mercy through it all too! I love you all so much in the LORD and cannot wait to come back and meet you all. I want to give each and everyone of you a great big hug and tell you thank you for your love and prayers and the great meals those who volunteered to bring me this week. The LORD will bless you abundantly for your kindness and service to HIM. Now I am going to go rest. I don't know what I have to look forward yet when the medicine wears off, but I am trusting that the LORD will also get me through that too.
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths."
HAVE A GREAT DAY PRAISING THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED AND GLORIFIED! Have a blessed day in the LORD, for that is where all of our joy is!
Always in HIS Love and Care,
Sister Valerie LeClair
