I was cleaning out my closet last night and did not realize I was injuring my left arm in the midst of all the carrying, fixing, and organizing. My muscles grew so painful before I went to bed that it was so difficult to sleep. This morning, I couldn't even move it. I had to apply a hot compress, some muscle ointment, and this bandage wrap. It was so hard not to be able to use it even for the minor things at home. I didn't realize how much I needed my left arm until I injured it. Isn't this so like us in some of our relationships? We take each other for granted and we don't even realize it. Only when they are gone or something drastically happens, is when we painfully discover how much we really need them in our lives. Sometimes it's just way too late and the damage has been done. While we still have each other, let's be honest, loving, and appreciative. Let us never forget that we have a God who deserves our undivided attention. If injuring my arm will make me more appreciative of the little things in life, then may it also be a lesson for me to not take God for granted for the wonderful things He does for me day in and day out.
Please pray for healing. Thank you.
