Yesterday morning, I went in to have my wisdom teeth removed. To be 100% honest, the surgery itself did not scare me at all. In fact, it was simply the IV needle that had me worried. My entire life I've had a fear of needles; I allow myself to overthink about them to the point where I could almost pass out.
Today, is my first day after surgery. Looking back, I think about the Bible verse that tells us not to be anxious or nervous about anything; but in all things, by prayer and petition, give your worries to God. I know that's not the exact wording, but I'm sure you get the point. I had let myself become so nervous and so anxious that I wasn't giving my worries to God. I'm a little sore today, and my cheeks are puffy, but I'm fine. I made it.
To think that I had gotten so worked up about surgery is crazy. Yes I'm human, and having your wisdom teeth pulled is major surgery, but with God I don't need to be so nervous to the point of passing out.
I just felt like sharing a little bit about what God continues to teach me. I feel like lately it's been a lot about fear and nervousness, and how to deal with them. I'm blessed everyday by God's constant teachings and life lessons! I hope these blog posts are encouraging to each of you as well!
I Will Praise You O LORD My God, With All My Heart I Will Glorify Your Name Forever
