" I need a Word"

So I have what I call reality of the world days and reality of what God says days. Yesterday was one of those reality of the world days, it hit me hard but it didn't knock me down. We saw the Endocrinologist yesterday and after looking at all of our recent findings he doesn't think that I have a primary adrenal problem. He does think that I have a secondary adrenal issue that can be caused by high doses of steroids, thus the reason I completely spiraled after the treatments that I had over a month ago. So in order to really prove that there is no primary adrenal issue we are going to go through with a formal test this coming Monday that will show us that. This means that I have to wean off the steroids that rebuild the adrenals to have the test. Chad and I are at peace with this because we didn't want my body being dependent on steroids for no reason. So that's good news, but just feels like we are kind of starting over in a way. We are praying that I will have no side effects from the wean and that my body will continue to build strength. Please pray that with us!

Yesterday afternoon, Sam, our 2 year old, didn't take a nap so he was snuggling on the couch with me. If he is not eating or sleeping, he wants to be on his mommy's lap lately and I love it! Since I was having "one of those days" I was just soaking the healing in through my baby loving on me and in my mind was thinking of all the things that this world is bombarding me with and out of my mouth I said to God, " Lord, all I need is a Word." Immediately after I said that, I heard God say, " I already gave you my Word." Oh yeah, my flesh must have forgotten who it's boss is. God and His Word.

2 Corinthians 10:4 +5, " For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ."

I feel so overwhelmed some days because I allow the imaginations and thoughts that work against the knowledge of God to be bigger than what God is saying. The reality of His Word. I have to work at this harder some days. The battle is definitely for my mind. That stronghold of fear and doubt has to go. I am casting down every thought and imagination of what could be going on in me and believing what God is saying.

He says I'm healed of sickness and disease, no matter what I feel or see. He says I shall not die, but live, no matter what I feel or see. He says that I am free. I am imagining what God has on the other side of all this, not what my enemy is imagining. I WILL NOT SETTLE FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS I SHOULD HAVE. Neither should you! Let's help each other to keep moving forward. I need all of your encouraging words, they bring life to me, they are so valuable. God's Word is so valuable. Thank You Jesus.
