Day 86 Curse in to Blessing

It is with awe and amazement that I thank and bless You, Lord.  My baby has a staph infection, which is highly contagious and the doctor said that no one should touch him. However, because I have strep throat, I'm also on antibiotics, which will help my body resist the staph so I alone can touch and hold him!  Here this sickness, which I questioned and felt so burdened by, has become a blessing!  I'll gladly bear sterp now since I can see how You have used it for good. What a sweet example of Your love, Lord, and how You endured to suffer and die out of a high goal to save mankind from sin and death. You saw the big picture.  My cross today is to endure strep.  My cross daily is to lose my life for Christ's sake.  I am losing my old life as I become the mother You desire me to be. 

Tip: When burdens seem heavy, remember to go to Jesus with them and He promises to give you rest.  Matthew 11:28
