Breath of Heaven...

Recently opening a letter from our insurance company, I was informed that one of my asthma medications would no longer be covered in 2014.  This has been the main medication keeping my airways open for the past twelve years.  I was shocked, disappointed and concerned.  What would we do?  How would I survive without this life-saving prescription?  Would any other medication work as effectively?  What will happen to me if optional meds don't work?  My life depends on the right medication to keep me breathing.

Then I was reminded that as important as the asthma medication is, I must rely on God most to survive this journey of life. He gives me breath, life, hope, peace, purpose and love.  He carries me through each moment.  He sustains me, forgives me, directs me and holds me.  He will never leave me or forsake me.

As winter continues to grip us with double-digit subzero temperature the next several days, I am reminded that whatever season of life is faced, I know I can trust Him. I will not always understand His ways, but I am certain that He is the Only Way I will endure whatever lies ahead.  I am so thankful that when I grasp for His hand, He will always be available.  And that's a breath of fresh air I will cherish continually.♥~thl

"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.  Those who know Your name will trust in You, for You, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek You."  Psalm 9: 9>10
