Declaration of Dependence

I have been unblogged this week. Due to surgery Monday, I haven’t spent much time at the computer. I had extensive surgery to clear scar tissue from my right nasal passage. I have been bleeding since then and must change a dressing under my nose every couple of hours. Needless to say, I will be happy when the bleeding stops.

We all face medical challenges from time to time and realize doctors can do only so much. Ultimately, healing is a divine prerogative. We must depend on the Lord to do what He deems best. As we celebrate our nation’s independence, perhaps each of us should construct a Declaration of Dependence, a prayer in which we declare our dependence on the Lord for every need.
