I'm in the process of finding out that I am having some problems with my thyroid. I've had tests run and had an ultrasound and now tomorrow I'm being sent to the endocrinologist. I'm not sure what is going on or how good or bad it is. But I do know that it's creating some additional emotional stress to be dumped on top of all my other stuff. I'm fighting an urge to crawl in bed and cry but I know that doesn't do anything so am doing my best to deal with it. If you think of me, can you please pray that God would grant me some peace at this time in my life.

I was reading in Ezekiel this morning, totally not my book of choice, but I felt God bringing a passage to life for me. Ezekiel 33: " 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: On the day I cleanse you from all your sins, I will resettle your towns, and the ruins will be rebuilt. 34 The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through it. 35 They will say, "This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited." 36 Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the LORD have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the LORD have spoken, and I will do it.'
Idaho came to my mind when I was reading this. What an awesome promise for God to make. I started praying that I wanted God to use me in making this promise come true for Idaho. I don't know what it would look like and who am I to do anything great, but Lord I'm here to go if you want me. Then I read the next verse:
37 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Once again I will yield to the plea of the house of Israel and do this for them: I will make their people as numerous as sheep, 38 as numerous as the flocks for offerings at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts. So will the ruined cities be filled with flocks of people. Then they will know that I am the LORD."
Why would anyone not want to serve this God!
