Many Christians memorized Proverbs 3:5-6 while they were yet children. Yet, we can spend all of our lives somehow escaping the action that we are exhorted to do...acknowledge Him in everything. Roger von Oech in his book "A Kick in the Seat of the Pants," suggests: "Take a look around where you're sitting and find five things that have blue in them. Go ahead and do it. With a "blue" mindset, you'll find that blue jumps out at you: a blue book on the table, a blue pillow on the couch, blue in the painting on the wall, and so on...In like fashion, you've probably noticed that after you buy a new car, you promptly see that make of car everywhere. That's because people find what they are looking for. At times in our lives, God seems strangely absent, but the problem is not that God has disappeared. We simply lack a "God" mindset. When we develop our sensitivity, we soon begin to see his work everywhere." How imperative it is for us to maintain the sensitivity to His presence and work in our lives.
On a medical note: The liver seems to be in a holding pattern presently, with the bilirubin level and enzymes moving up slightly. Please pray that the trend will be reversed again. I wish that there were something I could do to facilitate the liver's self-repair, but since I can't, I cast this constantly at the feet of the Great Physician.
