Waiting Upon the LORD

Two weeks ago today we were just getting home from Drew's sleep study.  Little did we know that the test would reveal possible seizures, not the sleep apnea we suspected.  The Doctor was taking boards so it took awhile to get the sleep study read, but they finally called last Friday and said the EEG portion of the study was abnormal and they wanted to know if we could go for an EEG on Monday.  So we kept Drew up until midnight on Sunday and got him up at 4 am yesterday so he would be tired for his test on at 10 am.  Needless to say he wasn't near as tired as I was.  =)  Results from the EEG are already back and they are referring us to Peoria to see a Pediatric Neurologist.  

In light of all these test results I have been going back over all the Doctor reports and notes from when Drew was admitted for SBS as an infant.  It is crazy how reading something can take you right back to the moment.  The most incredible part of all has been how faithful God has been.  Drew has surpassed the Doctor's expectations of his outcome in light of the injuries.  Where Drew is today is a true miracle from God.  God has been so remarkable in placing people in my life at just the right moment and He has brought me such peace and healing.

His timing is always perfect.  Currently I am taking a Hebrew class.  A few weeks ago we were talking about the scripture Isaiah 40:31- But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.  We learned that "wait" in Hebrew here means to twist or bind.  So when we twist our weakness around God's strength we become unbreakable.  How incredible to know that regardless of the storm to hit our lives if we are twisted with God we will not break!!  I pray that you are "waiting" on the LORD so that you will mount up with wings as eagles!!
