Lamentations 3:25-26 – The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. 
It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.

It’s hard sometimes to wait patiently for things. Especially in today’s society where everything is in a fast paced mode. Several times in His Word, God instructs us to “be still” or “wait”. 
It’s in the waiting that we find ourselves depending on the Lord, resting in His care, and gaining strength for the journey ahead.

9:41p -I got a good report with Neurologist today. He is well pleased with my progress especially since I am 6 months post-strike. He’s impressed that the homeopathic route I’m taking is helping. He said that the brain injury should continue to improve over at least the next six months or so. 
I still have my good days and bad days, but overall I am improving. My mother says she can start to see the light in my eyes again and it encourages her. God is good. Lamentations 3:22-23 – Great is God’s faithfulness!
