It is a little unusual for me to revisit a Mile Marker that is only two weeks old, but I think I need to. Or at least I want to.
On January 26 I posted Healing Is A Process. You can follow the link above and read or re-read that post as you like.
I will not completely rewrite the whole post, but as a recap, I showed you pictures of the inside of my arm. The first picture was taken two weeks into my hospital stay. I received all those bruises and blood beneath my skin the first day in the emergency room.
Pictures after that were in one week increments showing how the arm was healing. The natural process, that God created in us was healing the wound.
I compared that to the swelling and pressure that is in my brain stem from the stroke I suffered on December 29. It is also healing, it is experiencing the healing process that God instituted in humans. I do not know the rate of healing but I know it is healing.
I cannot take a picture as the brainstem heals but I have taken pictures each week of my arm as it heals. I draw encouragement every week from that picture, because I know my brain is healing too.
As my brain heals, we are seeing small advances in regaining use of my leg, my arm, my swallowing, my vocal cords, my eyesight. and my balance. All of these will likely continue to improve as my brain heals.
Praise God! Praise God!
I have a long ways to go, but as my inner arm heals I am reminded, even though I cannot see it, my brain stem is healing too.
Look at these and rejoice with me.

As I said before, every day I believe God for an instantaneous miracle and I have received some. But also, every day, I am experiencing and trusting God‘s amazing healing process in my body.
Thank you very much for reading today.
