When all else fails, leave it to God

A few days ago I heard an encouraging story from a lady about her health. Just a few years ago her breathing was getting worse and worse. Numerous tests diagnosed a lung problem, and the prognosis was not good. With no cure possible the hospital consultant advised her that she could expect confinement to a wheelchair and constant use of a portable nebuliser.

At this point she concluded that all human options are exhausted, only God can help now. She accepted that she may become wheelchair bound, and left the future in God's hands.

Within months she found her symptoms had gone, her breathing much easier. She visited the hospital consultant who was surprised to find no sign of any problem within the lungs, and no explanation of how this could be so.

Since then she has led an active life with no restrictions, and has been instrumental in church ministry where she lives.

Sometimes we just just have to leave things in God's hands.
