Today is the day Isabella comes home. She will be having her graduation ceremony first with all the doctors/therapists/nurses/patients in the program. They will all share something wonderful about Isabella. I hope that I will be able to get some of those comments for you. I am also hoping that someone will be able to provide pictures to me quickly so that I can get them on here for you to see sometime this evening!
Praise be to God who has allowed this progress, fostered healing, maintained life, and blessed us all beyond measure. I know that there will be great things ahead in the life of sweet little Bella -- to come through something like this in the way and measure she did, God is saving her for some great work in His kingdom!
I wanted to share a few verses in Psalms with you this morning in honor of our God and the way He has so beautifully dealt with Isabella during these 7 weeks...
"In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety." Ps. 4:8
"But I have trusted in your lovingkindness; My heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord because He has dealt bountifully with me." Ps. 13:5-6
"He rescued me because He delighted in me." Ps. 18:19
"Some boast in chariots and some in horses, but we will boast in the name of the Lord, our God." Ps. 20:7
"You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance." Ps. 32:7
"The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Ps. 34:18
"I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry. He brought me up out of the pit of destruction...He put a new song in my mouth...Many O Lord are the wonders which you have done and your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count." Ps. 40:1-5
"For the Lord God is a sun and a shield; The Lord gives grace and glory." Ps. 84:11
"The Lord preserves the simple; I was brought low and He saved me. Return to rest, O my soul, for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you." Ps. 116:7
"YOu have enclosed me behind and before and laid Your hand upon me." Ps. 139:5
