Unfavorable things may happen but I believe God is in control. He is our maker and the God of impossible after all. I believe that God still does miracle to His children, to those who are committed to Him, to those whose hope is in Him, and to those who are in total dependence in HIM.
I am saying this because I believe that God can make impossible possible. I have undergone stem cell surgery for my facial scar just a week ago, but, unfortunately, it was infected on Day 5. For any uncontrollable reasons, pus started to proliferate on the wounds and so the doctor predicted that stem cells are already dead and declared that surgery has failed. Meaning, the scar will return to its original appearance, it wouldn’t be improved or erased. The moment that I heard the news, I was troubled and saddened because stem cell surgery takes thousands of pesos, all the effort and excitement was gone, suddenly hope seems to fade away.
On the way home, however, I was just reminded that God is in control of everything and He can make failure into success just to show how much He loves and gives favor to His children. He reminded me that Jesus has taken the failure in to the cross when He died for us 2000 years ago, every drop of the blood of Jesus gives hope, healing, restoration, joy, victory, triumph, and so much more.
Having said this, I have still have the confidence that God will use this situation so that His name will be glorified and lifted high.
God does make miracle. Everything is possible because of Jesus and the blood that He shed for u, because He loves us so much. With all the infection that happened to my stem cell, i still declare God is in control!
julie, i greatly admire how you managed to come out of this crisis with your unwavering faith. good and bad things happen for unknown reasons. God has His reasons for what happened (maybe for you to get the chance to visit australia?)
