Leave it all in God's hands. Every time you think about your surgery today, tell yourself (out loud!) "God, thank you for this opportunity to become a healthier person just like You planned for me. I hand my fears to You, take them and throw them in to the deepest part of the ocean. You are in control. Not me. Not the surgeon, just you. Fill my heart and the hearts of my family with the reassurance and knowledge that You have control of my life." If He can create this universe, He can surely handle our life challenges. Praying that God will comfort you and your family. Your AMOS friend,
