Last week I referenced the above scripture from the book of Numbers. It is a pretty amazing statement because it does reflect the power of the creator. If we believe the bible to be true. If we believe that God is who He said He is, then we must know that absolutely nothing is too difficult, hard or challenging for Him.
Last month I had my regular CT scan and blood work. I do this routine every 4 months because of the type of cancer I had and that it has grown back twice in the last 8 years in my lungs. My cancer actually started in my uterus and spread to my lungs. My abdomen graduated to a yearly exam quite a while back but my lungs did not reach that goal. In December of 2023, my bloodwork showed that my hemogloblin had dropped to 10.4 which is below the acceptable amount of 12.0. This was unexpected and anemia typically indicates an issue for a woman of my many years. With my history, it can certainly indicate cancer. I had to do a follow up CBC this last week and praise to God, my hemoglobin was back up into the normal range with 12.2.
It is easy for all of us to praise God when our news is good. It is more challenging when we receive alarming news. That I believe is the human condition. We know that nothing is too difficult for God and yet we get sick, our family breaks apart, loved ones die. We wonder. The reality is that God can do whatever He chooses. We have to accept that we are in a world corrupted by sin and that this world is not our ultimate home. There is a world coming where sin is not involved. The bible describes it and for me it would be too difficult to actually write into words. Read God’s Word. It will give you a clue. In the meantime, trust God. Walk with Him. Praise Him. Give Him the glory in all things. Ask that He make you courageous.
