Character Building

I think I am feeling better. I hesitate because yesterday I believed I had been healed and ate my peas at dinner only to revisit them around 1:30 in the morning. Moral of the story don´t eat peas. This may gross some of you out but if you want to be a part of the true experience.... so far so good today.
Thanks for all your prayers. I know it could definitly be worse and God has allowed me to be active during the day and not stuck in bed for to long. I guess a series of humbling experiences is critical in character building. So Nicole and I should have a lot of character by the time we get home.
On a serious note- This trip has taken all my security blankets away forcing me to see that God is in control and not me. He is using this experience to change my perspective and focus. It is so easy at home to attempt to take the wheel. But as many of you know, it only results in a lot of anxiety and sleepless nights. As alot of things in my life are changing and needing answers (or so I think- like for instance where will I get a job? Nicole needs a job too) it is nice to be awakened again to the power and mercy of God.
