So, it doesn't look like I'm going to get any of those pictures up. *Slightly whimpers* The weekend got away from me and now I'm busy getting ready to head to the hospital tomorrow. I will go through the all day check in process, spend the night and hopefully have the surgery Tuesday morning. So, I really don't know when I'll be back here...I'm thinking maybe a couple of weeks. We shall see.
Before I go, I want to leave you with a few verses that I've written down on index cards for my hospital stay. I hope they are blessing to you too:
"For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison." 2 Corinthians 4:17
"...By His wounds you have been healed" 1 Peter 3:24b (side note here: even when the pain gets bad, no matter what, we know that our biggest wound (sin) has been healed by HIS wounds.)
"But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weakness, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong" 2 Corinthians 12 :9-10

Megan, I'll be praying for you. In June, I had the fourth surgery I have had since I was 9 and I know it can be so difficult to go through things like this. I'll pray the doctors will be given wisdom far beyond their own ability.
Dearest Megan,
You know of my deep love for you and tender heart during this surgery. I am extremely grateful that in times like these you flee to the Word of your God for comfort, perspective and direction. God is good to give me a daughter like you.
Love always, Dad
Oh, Megan. I'll be praying!! I love those Bible verses - so amazing and encouraging.
Love you!!
