God is Good

Since my last post, things have gone really well. God is so good. Friday and Saturday were very productive days. I got many things on my list done. It's neat how God provides. Saturday morning we were going to do a stock check. However, Friday ended up being a very slow day at the clinic so we were able to do it Friday afternoon instead. Fridays are usually very busy days so a slow Friday is VERY rare. The new governor was in town so many people were in town seeing her instead of at the clinic. While I was stressing about having to do that along with a lot of other things on Saturday, God knew we would be able to do it on Friday. It was such a blessing to have it done early and be able to check that off. It's just another reminder to me that God will help me get the job done and I don't need to freak out!

Today was also salary day. Another potential stressful situation. There are always unhappy people on salary day. I geared up for the drama and was pleasantly surprised when everything went smoothly. The people who normally put up a fight were fine when I told them their salaries were deducted for the days they didn't work. It could not have gone better. That was truly from God.

Another blessing is the arrival of our truck. We have another large truck coming from Uganda which is bringing construction supplies for our new clinic. It was supposed to come today which was going to be hard since I had to help with the women's conference. We got word that it would arrive on Sunday instead. Whew! And some of our staff said they would come in on Sunday to help unload.

Many other items on my list were also accomplished. I delegated many of them and they were finished quickly. I still have quite a bit to do, but I don't feel as overwhelmed now. When will I learn not to worry?!

I am also starting to feel better. I finished my last IV dose of medication yesterday. The other medication that made me feel so sick is getting out of my system now. I had a fainting spell today, but now am ok. I expect to be able to eat and drink normally soon. I don't have any more stomach pain so I think the amoebas are gone. I'll be retested in two weeks.

God is so good. Thank you for your prayers. I really appreciate them.

  1. Great news! So glad things are going smooth. Not too sure about that fainting spell...eat or drink what you can and don't forget to put 'rest' on your check list!

    Love you,

  2. I agree with Traci. Make sure you are getting enough rest! Other than that, I'm so happy that things are going so well. One random thing, the new governor is a woman? I wouldn't think that would happen in that culture!
