Haven't blogged in quite a while- which isn't a bad thing. There just aren't many things to update on.
Had another gynaecologist appointment- and I must say that I sometimes wonder why I bother going. I hear the same things over and over again...a little sick of it.
There was however, a proper, more definitive diagnosis to the problem- trapped ovaries. I did some research myself, and it does mean that I'm going to be taking pills, and 10 billion painkillers for the rest of my life. There's no other way to do things. A part of me wishes this could be taken care of by surgery, but it can't be because of all the adhesions.
That's okay I guess. A body like this was given to me- and it's by grace that I can be alive today. It's also by grace that I'm saved- and this is further affirmed by the fact that I wouldn't have chosen God if he hadn't chosen me.
In other news, I've been going through the book of Judges and I can see the attitudes of the Jews in myself. There is a cycle of sin- the Jews rejoice in victory in God, only to then become unfaithful again. Likewise, I ask God for forgiveness and mercy, not necessarily repenting, only to regress back to sinfulness. The comfort is that God doesn't give up on the Jews- continually showing mercy and compassion to them.
We also see God's judgement and righteous anger through the book. Each time the Jews are unfaithful, God is angry and punishes them. I'm a sinner, and it's only right that I am punished by God, but by God's grace and mercy, He sent his son to take the punishment. To this, I am extremely thankful.
