As someone who has had several surgeries the past few years, I want to encourage you to be kind and patient with your body as you wait. There's simply no substitute for time when it comes to healing! Imagine what you would say to a good friend who is in your position... and try to be that gentle and kind with yourself! I'll be keeping you in my prayers, maría<br />María Ruiz Scaperlandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049343562098542784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946716175334921945.post-66814054648495608652012-12-24T07:26:11.178-06:002012-12-24T07:26:11.178-06:00Thank you for this Advent devotion.

This has caused me to have to sit back and wait.. patiently waiting is hard for me. I always want to do it myself. I read several devotions this morning and they all pointed to how I need to patiently wait. But I have realized that Christmas comes whether I run around and do all the shopping two days before or if I am sitting waiting.
