This song sums up how I have felt these last few days. I know the Lord loves me. I know He loves you. I have the heart/brain connection and have walked with Him for many years. Still, when He lays His hands upon you and touches you in a miraculous way, I can't tell you how much humbling that takes place.
I have heard from my cardiologist on Friday and after further review of my catherization procedure, the diagnosis has changed. He told me I was lucky to be alive....four of my arteries were 100% blocked and had actually attached themselves to my heart wall thereby eliminating the need for the doctors to do the bypass. They have called it an anomoly. They have diagnosed me with coronary artery disease and will need to put me on medicine and I see him tomorrow for further information and the medicine.
I am unworthy of His grace and mercy and love and His healing touch and yet He did just that. It's been hard for me to take in....very emotional. I can't imagine the Lord of the Universe touching me in such a tangible way and caring so intimately and yet there is no other way to explain what happened to me and I can still feel Him close to me, encouraging me to hold on.
May the Lord bless you today. May you know His presence in such a tangible way. Blessings to you and your loved ones this day.....this day that our Lord hath made.

Hi, Debra! I have been out of the blog world for a couple of weeks and was so surprised when I discovered you had been ill. I am so thankful for all God has done for you over the last week or so. Glad you are feeling better and back home again. I will certainly keep you in my prayers.
I'm so thankful for what He has done and will continue to do in your life, my friend.
Praise The Lord, Debra! I am so glad that we serve the Great Physician, the Ultimate Healer, the Great I Am, the Everlasting Father, Mighty Warrior and the King of Kings!
God isn't finished with you yet, my friend! I can't imagine how it feels to know that God of all Creation reached down with His Mighty Hand and healed you, sustained your life and wrapped His arms around you saying "Debra, you work isn't finished here, come on, let's keep going...we have a daughter who needs to return to me and I need your help as her loving mother to bring her home". I believe this, Debra.
You will see that day with your precious daughter...return to you and the Kingdom of God...the one who created her and gave her life.
Hang in there, my friend...I am praying for you!!!
Love you so much, my sweet friend!
My Sweet, Sweet Friend,
I love you! I've been thinking and praying for you during this time. What an awesome God we have! It is a miracle, yes it is. As with my husband, when they did his heart-cathe back in Dec. 2006, they discovered he had 3 major anurysms (HUGE) that blood was hardly flowing through. He could of easily suffered a massive heart attack, but God was and has been watching over my dear husband. He, too, is lucky to be alive. We are still looking for His miracles, yes we are and thank Him every day for all that He has done thus far.
My mind, heart and prayers are with you dear friend. I am still praying for more miracles to occur for you too. He is the great physician. All praise, honor and glory are yours Almighty Father, forever and ever more. Amen!
I'll be checking in on you dear one.
May His grace, love, tender mercies and healing pulsate all throughout your body in Jesus precious name. Amen.

Debra...that is totally Gods grace!!!!!
I'm so happy to hear that you didn't need surgery!! My father in law had a quadruple bypass around 8 years ago and it took awhile for him to recover. I also have another girlfriend who had heart surgery a couple of years ago. She is young too (42).
HUGS!!!

Isn't God amazing! Many would be scared by such a diagnosis but your attitude is wonderful! Praise Him and gave Him glory for His grace in how HE handled your health and that He lead you to a doctor that is giving you the treatment that you need. I am so glad to hear your praise report!

Praising GOD that the GREAT PHYSICIAN had your case all along.

You are so sweet Debra and I'm so thankful for all God has done in your life. Praying for you today.
I am in tears, dear Debra. I had NO idea any of this was going on, but truly I am praising the Lord on your behalf. Thank You, Lord Jesus, for this wonderful and indescribable gift!
Hello beautiful and precious sister!
I just shared the video w/my youngest son (oldest is at work) and shared your post with both my son and husband and we're all giving glory and honor to God along with you!
We haven't heard the latest on me yet, but seems that I might have had (if I still don't) leukemia, but in four days God cleared it up! My white blood cell count, blood smears and other tests started to normalize all by themselves w/o treatment. No one can explain what they thought they saw, and no longer see.
I was supposed to be in the hospital for a minimum of 1 mth, but got out after 6 days!
I share this to say that I truly understand the feeling of sheer unworthiness, humility that takes over someone when we realize how GREAT and AWESOME God is and how very, very poor and needy we are, yet He takes thought for us.♥
"But may all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
may those who love Your salvation say continually, 'Great is the LORD!'
As for me, I am poor and needy, but the Lord takes thought for me.
You are my Help and my Deliverer; do not delay, O my God!"
Love you dear sister,
Sunny
You have blessed my heart today. Thank you!
God is in control! Praying that all goes well for you, friend...
I praise God for His precious touch upon your life my dear friend. I am asking Him to continue to keep His touch upon you. I love you.
PTL!! What a beautiful post!! So happy to see the hand of God's healing at work!!
Absolutely amazing, Debra. What a testimony! So thankful you are under the good care of both the Great Physician and an earthly physician.
That is such wonderful news! And I loved the video. Thanks for visiting my music blog.
Debra - I am so thankful that He reached down and touched you! There were so many of us praying for you and God is so good!
I will continue to pray for you as you begin new medication.
Hope you fully recover quickly.

I shared with my family what you shared yesterday re: The Shack. My husband said, "Her husband must be really solid and know the word of God well. Gotta love a brother like that!"
Sure wish y'all lived closer! Still praying for you (even this a.m.) and just can't stop thanking God for you and all that He's done!
Our Lord is AWESOME!
