Reflections 3/25/2020: Thank y’all for praying for my appointment with the surgeon yesterday. It went well and surgery to remove the cancerous tissues in my body is still in the making, but put off for another 3-4 weeks. Not so much a scheduling problem for an ER room as the doc wanting a little more destruction of the cancer cells before going in. RATSO!! I had a “different order” in mind than this! “The sooner the better! Get this murderous marauder out of my tender body!” Sooo, I must apply “calm acceptance” to the embrace of this differing timeline! Especially when I say in closing all my prayers, “Not my will but Yours be done.” Lynette, that applies to timing issues as well as “yes” or “no” bottom lines. I forget THAT in my arrogant insistence to “have it my way,”(sorry Burger King)! And “I want it NOW!”, as in spoiled brat, Veruca Salt’s impatient demand for an immediate golden goose in “Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory!” I don’t want to be proclaimed “a bad egg” in Your patience department, Lord! Sooo, 3-4 weeks it is… and that is even open to revisions on Your timeline if You see fit. “Calm acceptance” is in the making.
