Amelia's Hospital Visit

On Friday, Amelia was having trouble breathing and she ended up being admitted in to the pediatric ward of the hospital. She is ok now.  She had to have blood tests, breathing treatments, & slept in an oxygen tent over night. The next day her oxygen levels stayed in the good range without a mask so she was allowed to go home.  From what I gathered from the Dr.s she had an asthmatic episode at the onset of a cold.  She is petrified of doctors so she screamed over stethoscopes, oxygen masks, & all the actual painful stuff.
I used to think that if God loves me then life should be like a dream come true all the time.  Of course life just isn't that way; if we can't breathe we need a Doctor and treatment.  God is the "Great Physician", He heals us when we need healing...   When we're going through something hard He wants to be there for us and to give us what we need-- He knows what that is.  Sometimes it may be a good time to give us something fun and exciting and other times we may need an iv and an oxygen mask-- spiritually speaking that is.  We can trust Him, because He loves us and desires to do good to us-- He is what Love is.
