Two Tests

Until yesterday I had never heard of a medical test called Bravo. I thought that word meant expressing approval of something. I now have an expanded understanding. Bravo means I am going to be sedated, a gel-cap size piece of equipment is going to be attached to the inside of my esophagus … and then I wear a monitor that receives information from my insides.

As I ponder this, I realize I am facing two tests. One medical … one spiritual. On the medical side, there is always a possibility something can go wrong. I read the warnings and precautions. And just for kicks and giggles, the anesthesia that will be used is the same one found in Michael Jackson’s room. Yeah! But I must trust my doctor … that he knows what he is doing and it is for my good.

On the spiritual side, there are no warnings and precautions. I totally trust God knows what He is doing … and that it is for my good. And so I place me in God’s hands.
