When I twisted my knee last month it never occurred to me that this would be an opportunity for my marriage to grow. Yet here I am getting ready to go for knee surgery at the end of the month and today I have to go to Baltimore to get my pre-op check up. It’s a long drive but that doesn’t bother me, I am used to the drive. I drove to and from Baltimore almost daily when Monkey was sick. It’s what happens once I get there that concerned me. The walking from the parking garage to the clinic area, then to get an EKG, Chest X-Ray, and finally lab work seemed like a long painful hobble.
This morning my sweet husband woke me up and asked what time we needed to leave because he was thinking it would be good to take off half a day and help me. Surely they have wheelchairs, yes? So not only do I have company on the ride, I have a “ride” when I get there. Truly, this is “in sickness” that we spoke of when we took our vows. Thankfully this will be a short term “in sickness” and soon we’ll return to “in health”. Another season. Another reason to give thanks.

Some times bad things can be made into good things through the Glory of God! My husband have recently survived a crisis in our marriage, yet through it I believe he has found God. I hate that it took this, but God has a plan!
